I love my Halfbike. I ride 4-5x a week. It was difficult to learn and I am sometimes still unstable. I am a fit athletc 57 year old female (117 lbs 5 feet tall). It is fun and brings my heartrate up, especially when going up hills. I learned how to ride it in 30 minutes but lacked control. I am still working on sharp turns but do well with wide turns, flat surfaces, mildly bumpy surfaces, and avoiding obstacles (pine cones, acorns, rocks, etc.). After 2 months, I can ride approximately 4 miles. I hope to attain 10 miles, but need to work on conditioning. I do wish the handlebars were a bit taller (for my short arms) and slightly wider. I love to ride my Halfbike and look forward to becoming, stronger, more fit, and able to take it on bike trails for a long outing.
