For my taste:
Too short
BB too high
Might be a decent starter/test bike for someone interested in moving to a cruiser...

cheap Sunday copy?

If that's too short then where does that put the Sunday model c's?
I ride the Sunday with TT 21.25 and it's plenty big enough and I'm 6'2".

If I can put my foot in normal position and touch my shoe with the front tire, it's too short. You can drag out feet and inches and charts, but it's still too short.
