I'm a big fan of the cruisers, simply because I think they look more traditional. I'm planning to go sit on a few this weekend just to get a better idea about what I'm looking for. From what I've read of this board so far, a lot of new folks around here shop by sitting on a bunch of bikes they think they may be interested in.
However, it seems like quite a few of the bikes that could be considered "starter" bikes generally have the same measurement as far as length goes. I'm six-foot-five and don't want to look like I'm hunching!
Are there ways to customize how far back the seat sits from the handlebars, or vice-versa? I know there's different types of handlebars you can get and different dimensions to them -- but what else is there? Is it even worth customizing a "starter?"
And -- as an unrelated footnote -- thanks for suggestions and help in the past. It's great having this board for reference!
