If you are too short for your bike pedals should u?

fatten up the pedals or get fatter shoes?

I don't wanna buy another bike
Get the shop to unweld it and install a clamp. It’s probably brazed so not difficult to loosen it.
@LeopoldBloom will try that...ty
@Whiterosesociety Most bicycle frames are brazed, because welding is too hot and will weaken the metal. So all you need is a small blowtorch to loosen it.

Heard about adjusting the seat?

@SW-User Whiterosesociety has already explained the problem there.

I had a basic off-road bike whose saddle was still too high even when lowered enough for the saddle tube to foul the suspension-arm. I had to cut the tube!
@ArishMell its pretty low already

ok thanks all, I think this is the end of this thread..

Be well!

Lower the seat.
@badminton can't do that, it got welded in by some shop

@Whiterosesociety Then you will have have to grow taller.
@badminton that's what I thought would happen here
