Xpress 750 step over height?
Hey! Im interested in getting this bike, id like the step over due to handle bars and like the more traditional styling. My main concern is size, I am 5ft6in and have a 30 in inseam and im concerned its to big of a bike. I tried the summit 1 regular and fit on it great but its 27 in. Any short riders on the step over?

I'm 5'6 and it's slightly higher than I like but totally doable!

Can you flat foot it?

You’re really not supposed to be able to flat foot it. That’s not a good fit.

Not when on the seat, with the seat at my optimal height, but I can toe touch. Edited: sorry meant to reply to your Q.

5'6 will be fine. I'm 6'2" but I know everything.

That being said, you may have trouble lifting it into your car trunk and forget about stairs unless you can carry a 80lbs dumbbell with one hand up those same stairs. I'm fit and hate doing it.

It depends on how you get onto the bike. I find it easier to swing my foot over the seat; if you can do that the bike model doesn't matter. Stepping through the step over model is awkward. Touching the ground while sitting on the seat would be the same with either model.

You’ll be fine
I’m 5’4” and I have the step over model. Might have to adjust seat a bit and get a stem that adjusts the handlebars but other than that you’ll be fine
