>>1217550I ride my uncle's old Schwinn Stingray around town with the banana seat raised high up into the air. At 5'10" I get this great cruising seating position that's actually really comfortable. The seat clamp is on the other way around in my case; moves the seat forward a couple of inches. In your case, just raise the seat a wee bit more, put the clam on the right way around, and raise the handlebars a bit too.
It's basically like a townie or cruiser position with these twee wheels that take up far less space than a fullsize bike would. Great for an apartment. The novelty of it is really great too. I love it so much. The only complaint I could make is that the front wheel turns disturbingly easy (there's very little gyroscopic force acting on it) and the rear wheel making contact literally under your ass makes bumps push the seat straight into your anus. Try not being a land whale like I am, and it will not be an issue.
