Big guys can ride this bike?

Not sure. I'm only around 6 feet tall and about 200 pounds and broke the rear cassette on my first ride today. The friend I was with is shorter and lighter and broke his rear cassette on the exact same bike, on his first ride also. The size itself is good, just wondering about the actual product quality now.

Unfortunately, I couldn't find specs that included weight capacity but since it is an adult men's bike, a cruiser (as opposed to thin wheeled road) I'd be willing to bet limits are around 300lbs. That would be my best guess based on looking at similar cruisers.

I wish I knew as well. What I'm coming across is that most bikes have a maximum weight of around 250-275. It's actually very hard to find bikes that will work for a heavier rider without bending the wheels. They to look for a sturdy steel frame, possibly a mountain bike, & get the thick knobby tires. I'm still searching to find one that will work for me too. I wish Schwinn would answer these questions.

My cousin's 16 year-old son and his friends who are 6ft plus, have a great time on this bike! I think your son would enjoy it as well.

Perfect for you. I had some problems with skipping gears. But I am a big man. This bike adjusts to height and the seat and handlebars can be adjusted for a person of your statureSimple to set up. Gears worked great too

I don't know, but they bike itself is very heavy so I imagine it can take more than 200 pounds

I think there is probably no issue with someone this size, I believe everything is adjustable. We bought one for my fatherinlaw. It was a good straight forward bike. He liked and so did we.

This seat is not for a BIG guy, it just won't take the considerable abuse it will get. you might look into a seat made just for such a person.

I am unable to answer this but I am 5'4" and I feel the bike is big and heavy - not in a bad way it provides the robustness that I was looking for. My husband who is 5'11" also rides this bike and it suits him as well.

I'm 6'3, 200 lbs. and love the bike. I have the seat and handlebars at the highest settings and can get get full extension. It would probably be close for you.

I am 6" - 215 lbs and the bike is plenty big for me. My wife it 5' 6" and she can ride it too.

The bike is very strong and I believe that the limit is 240lbs, so you should be fine.

I have been able to do it, but you have the full weight of the bikes to worry about. If you are strong, you won't have much trouble.

I don't think so. This ain't a performance bike and it comes with many low quality parts (like crank set, hubs and bottom bracket). The frame is sturdy but is not too light, tough.
