Question 1

I'm 5'2" would this bike fit me?

Accepted Answer

Whether this bike would fit /work for you or not is somewhat of a matter of opinion and personal choice.The S4023D Ladies Wayfarer (Mint) hybrid bike has 700c wheels.  They do not have a max weight limit, however, they field test those bicycles for up to 250 pounds.For the casual bike riders, most individuals use the size (diameter) of the wheels: 20", 24", 26"...etc to make the selection of the bike they wish to purchase. Bikes measured this way have frames designed relative to the tire size, so the larger the tire, the larger the frame. Some bike manufacturers may use a simple overall bike measurement such as x-small, small, medium, large, x-large; the bike size is usually on a sticker somewhere on the frame on other brands. (Only the custom bikes from this manufacturer are sized xs, small, med, large or xl , and these are not custom bikes)The manufacturer may label the bikes Boy's, Men's, Girl's, Women/Ladies however, they are not only meant for younger or older individuals. The rider will need to go by their height/inseam size. Keep in mind that for the 700c series road and hybrid bikes, the rim is larger in diameter so it will bring this frame higher up. These type of bikes (700c wheeled and hybrid) may be better suited for an individual 5' 7" and taller. Someone of a small stature may have a difficult time riding the bike comfortably. Each user may have a different personal preference though. Riding a bicycle that is not correctly sized to the rider may result in the rider's feet not being able to touch the ground and balance the bicycle, properly reach the handlebar for steering or braking, and loss of control when pedaling.This sizing below is just a general guideline for some Schwinn and Mongoose bikes. It is always best to be professionally measured to find the best fit/size if unsure.Bike Wheel Size - Your Approx.

What does it mean by hybrid

Accepted Answer

Hybrid bicycles blend characteristics from more specialized road bikes, touring bikes and mountain bikes. The resulting "hybrid" is a general-purpose bike that can tolerate a wide range of riding conditions and applications. Hope this is helpful
