Bike Build: Surly 1x1 Commuter
#10
no, it isn't. standover is fine. the bottom bracket is too high due to the wheel size. in order to get proper leg extension, the saddle would have to be like 15 feet in the air (not 15 feet extended). i would have a heck of a time getting up to it without a ladder.

additionally, the seat tube was cocked back at such an angle that i couldn't even get the saddle parallel to the ground.

if you're still not convinced, the bike is a "large" or 20". i'm 6'2. my mountain bike is a 19" and fits great.
