I am 5'9" tall. I love this bike. It is comfortable riding on the streets of New York, not just a smooth bike path. The shocks and comfy seat saves me lots of aches. The higher handlebar is comfortable for my height and it is adjustable for shorter women. It not only adjusts for height but for arm reach as well.
I would recommend this bike highly as I'm very happy with this purchase.

The original bike delivered had a problem. It did not shift properly. Amazon resolved the problem by sending a new bike and a prepaid pickup slip for the damaged one. Great service. I will shop with confidence in the future on amazon.com. The Kent bike is great. We replaced the seat with a bigger more comfortable seat. Great bike!!!

I got this as a gift for my partner and she likes it. I test drove it and it works pretty well. It was fairly easy to put together although I needed to take it to a bike shop to get the brakes adjusted correctly. My only criticism is that the gear shifter is a bit weird and clunky and it's easy to get caught between gears as you're riding causing the bike to make a slight grinding sound. This is because it uses a twist adjuster so it's hard to gauge what gears you are on without looking down to see the number display. Of course as you are cruising through traffic this is not recommended! I may be old-fashioned or just haven't gotten used to it yet, but I prefer the traditional up-down push gears - you can tell where you are by feel. But it rides smoothly otherwise.
