Default Another Newbie

Just wanted to sign up and introduce myself. My name is Rich Meyer i live in Roscommon Michigan. I have owned most toys including a honda pilot in the past and had just got turned on to the Revolt.

Test drove a Revolt the other day but I was really cramed into it and I'm only 5'10". My legs were sore after just a short ride. Hoping to find an XL to test drive. Hate to lay down this much money if it doesn't work for me.

Hey Rich,

Welcome to the forum! Are you a long legged 5' 10". They do fit snug. Did the machine you test drove have heel stops installed in it. They really help to take some of the pressure off your legs while you are working the pedals. If you're concerned, the XL will probably be the way to go with the adjustable seat. I would still recommend heel stops for the XL.

Mike

Hello Richard,

Welcome to the forum, don't rule out the machine until you try an XL!

Thanks for the welcome. No there was no foot block in the Revolt that I test drove so that could be part of it, but it seemed like I was very close to the steering wheel also. Hopefully the XL will eliviate all of my concerns.
