The problem is not how you'll look on the bike. Problem might be the sitting position. I'm 5'8" and bike fits me well - but sitting if very fixed - separate solo seat with distinct dip. This is my first bike with forward foot controls. Seat is allowing only one set position and with forward controls you cant unload the seat by lifting yourself with legs - so this bike becomes uncomfortable after just an hour or so of ride. All my prior bikes with continuous two seat bench and center controls I was able to ride for many hours. Maneuver back and forth a bit to prevent a$$ fatigue. So bike is great for what I mainly use it for - around town hoping. But if you plan longer trips - TU250, GW250 would be better option...
