do you have to use handle bars ?

No, it is not necessary. It will help build up your arms but I am a senior and not worried about that. I use the bars for only 3% of my exercise. The other 97% I am reading while I work my legs for an hour. I like it all. Good Luck to you.

No, but if you hook it up the way it is suppose to the handle bars will move when you pedal. However there is a way to not connect the handle bars to the pedals.

YES! I did not realize "no more than any other foam handlebar" meant they become completely saturated and begin rotating around on the handlebar. Because I may get caught in the rain while riding someday, or I may leave my bike out in the rain, I will be finding new rubber grips.

Yes they can. You must tighten the bike stem so that the wheel moves with the handle bars.

no. the handle bars are fixed to the forks that are mounted to the front tire like a regular bike.

I have replaced the handlebars on this. It was easy and I used this handlebar off of Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006R1IU5S/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

yes , you can raise the handle bars . there are turn handles on each side that are easy to turn. however you only have about 4 to 6 inches of pipe to ease it up. be careful you don't lose the balance of the rollator. it is a wonderful find for me . have used it for over 3 years and wouldn't want to be without it.

Unfortunately No. The unit is designed for the handlebars to be stationary. Don't worry though Joy, Its a great unit. Good Luck!

Yes, you will need the Rectangular Handlebar Kit available here: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000OO0ZM0

If you have space on the end of your handle bar you won't need anything. If you dont have room you'll need the CRG bar end

Mostly, just put on the handle bars, peddles, and wheels. Really easy and it includes the tools and had decent instructions.

They have a handle bar mount and chest strap. I've used the chest strap which worked fine.

In my case there was no need. I just removed the screw and slipped it into the handlebar.

Partially. You have to put the front wheel, handlebars, saddle, and pedals on.However, you should also be prepared to adjust the brakes and derailleur gears. There are videos on how to do this.

Yes, for the handle bars. If you got clever with the clamp, you could rig them for down tube shifting, but probably best to leave them on the bars

I used the rubber bands but it depends on the thickness of your handlebars. I can take a picture if you like.

No! You are too tall. My son is 5 ft and the handle bars are almost too low for him.

No. Our son uses it without the handlebar. I guess to use it the safe way it should have them but it is possible to use it without.
