They don't really get much lower on their own though , I think that is what you are asking. They are easily lowered though and I don't touch flat footed either. You don't really hold up much weight if you are riding correctly the weight is on the suspension and your feet are just balancing it for the most part. Wendy is 5'1 and I did lower hers and put floorboards on and adjusted the dontrols back as far as I could to make it comfortable for her.

I learned all I need to know about life by killing smart people and eating their brains.
