Hi, I had one and I'm 5'10 and had no problems what so ever putting both feet down so I think you would manage with one foot down. The guy who bought it off me was about your hight and he got on it and rode it away fine. I can't quite remember if the shock on the back is adjustable but if they are you can drop the rear end a little and that would help too. It was a great first bike and never failed to start or broke down on me. Get one, you won't regret it!

Nope, I can only tip toe my Rieju around, seat height is 830mm Laughing Might be able to get it lowered a little, but it depends on how the suspension is setup, if rear uses dogbone linkages then shorter ones can be made
