I am writing this AS I AM RIDING THIS BIKE. And so far, so good. I purchased this a while ago, and as some things happen with health and fitness when you're trying to lose weight you procrastinate and maybe let it sit too long. Well, about a week ago I said NO MORE.
I had a baby last year and ate like crap for the following year, gaining 10 more lbs on top of the 15 I gained from the pregnancy, giving myself a whopping 25 lbs of extra weight. So having lost 5-7 lbs from dieting alone for 2 weeks, I hopped on this bike 3 days ago at 158 lbs and 5'5".
I have a 38" inseam and that means of my 5'5" I have pretty long legs and a short torso. At the bike's lowest seat height I am very uncomfortable and my knees are coming up way too high into an acute angle. At the second to lowest seat height is where I hit my stride and my legs don't go lower than a 90 degree angle, perfect for riding.
Sometimes if I want to be less harsh on my knees, I will go up one more notch in height, but this is when I start having discomfort/issues with the bike seat. It's not any less uncomfortable than my regular bike seat at that comfortable notch, but it's very uncomfortable when I go any higher.
So ladies, my thoughts on everyone posting about who at what height will be comfortable on this thing, it's more about inseam than height. Anyone with a 36" or taller inseam will do just fine with minimal discomfort.
Other than that, this bike is VERY easy to put together, the tools are included. Took me 20m. It's super light weight, and folds easily and rolls smoothly right into our coat closet in the entryway. It is also whister quiet. Seriously, my husband snores louder than this thing.
For what it does and what it is, a super easy and compact exercise bike that gets you sweating, I give it a 5/5.
