How heavy is the chair and how small does it fold up? I'm looking for a chair to sling over my shoulder on my bicycle and don't want heavy or awkward.

It's light, but I think it may be too long to ride with it on your back. I would be afraid it might be too close to the tires

The chair is 7lbs and folds up to about 3ft high. I would think it would be uncomfortable to sling it over your shoulder while biking. Also, the strap is slippery and I don't know how well it would grip. I guess it would depend on how big you are. I am 120lbs and I find the chair a little bulky to carry. Hope this helps.

My husband said around 3lbs. Folds up in a carrying bag. it's about 3ft long and around 6inches round. He said he could put it over his shoulder nice long strap. Hope this helps you.

It is definitely NOT as portable as a collapsible camp chair, in a bag. And, it is a good deal heavier. But worlds more comfortable!!!! Imagine the chair in the photo completely pushed together; that is as small as it will get.

It folds up but it is heavy and a handfull to manage. Its not really something you want to do every time you use it-especially if you have a bad back!

The chair IS heavyier than a $10 Target chair I replaced. It seems about 3x heavier actually. On my shoulder or my back with the 2 shoulder straps (backpack style) it is easy to carry. My father complains about his and he is nearly 70, but I find it worth the extra weight.

It doesn't fold up, but is very light weight. It has 2 straps to go under the seat and the back of the chair you sit it on.

I purchased it for my in laws. My father in law age 88 was needing it for transporting my mother in law. I had a similar unit for my parents. It is extremely light weight so unlike a wheel chair it can easily be put in the trunk or even folded into the backseat of a car. My mother in law only weighs about 110 lbs. Due to the size of the wheels, if you have a heavy person it may not push easily. Also, unlike a wheel chair, the person can not manipulate it themselves. I think it is great for short trips and so far it is holding up.

The product details indicate that the chair weighs 85 pounds. You can slid it for a short distance, but it would take two people to easily carry it for any longer distance

I agree with all of the other answers.. just to add, this chair is very lightweight, and folds quite small/compact for travel and storageThe back folds down as well as the chair folding in when not in use

It folds in the middle and becomes a small package. The bike is well built and there is nothing you have to be copncerned about with this product. ENJOY!!!!!

how much it weighs?? not real sure but for a big bike it's not bad. I have carried it up steps a number of times. Good bike.

Assembled and folded up, it weighs between 10 and 12 pounds. Frankly, the only time that I've folded it up is to put it into a vehicle. Otherwise, I'll push it along (requires just one finger - smooth). It feels light when you're pushing it - almost like an umbrella stroller of 20 years ago. It looks just like a baby carriage. One neighbor saw us and thought we had a late one... (lol).

It's hard to say! when folded, the chair and the frame could be departed from each other.And the four wheel could be closed together as the frame is folded.Actually ,I am afraid the distance from the middle of the frame to the wheels is what you want to know. I think it is around 70cm

It is definately not as light as other folding chairs. 5 to 7 pounds might be correct. The frame is sturdy and metal. However, if they do not have issues that restrain them from lifting, it is no heavier than a gallon of milk.They are stiff to set up though.

The chair weights about 19lbs. I would suggest ordering the carry tote as the chair only folds up unlike the chair that completely fold up into the shoulder bag. The chair is awkward to carry around but its so comfortable it worth it. I'm a pretty big guy (6'4", 240 lbs) and this is the most comfortable portable chair I've ever purchased.

It's light enough but sturdy. To fold, you lift the seat and pull up on the bar in the middle. The two sides come together and it is quite compact. You didn't ask, but, if this is going to be used outside (I.e. not on smooth floor or carpet) I would get the larger wheels if I were you.

Hi Christie. It's not very heavy at all. It does require assembly (minimal). I put it together myself. To be honest, I'm not really happy with it. I've hardly used it, and parts of it have fallen apart. Not worth the money, which is a shame because the size is perfect.

When the chair is folded up there is a good chance to slip your arm through the bottom leg rails and sling it over your shoulder and off you go. Straps would also work well because the chair is so well constructed.
