[QUOTE="Mortenk, post: 1401852, member: 91362"] I was in the exact same situation five months ago (also in Seattle actually!). I found a slightly used 2016 ES eventually. I'm 5'10" with a 32" inseam, and have no problem with the bike. I tried both high and low seat setting, and prefer the low setting, as I can flatfoot on both sides while stopped. I thought I would prefer the high setting due to the better knee angle, but on a recent 480 mile trip over a few days, I had no problems with my knees using the low seat setting, and even the stock seat seems great! (I'm sure others will disagree here...). The bike is a joy to ride! [/QUOTE]
