Trying to find a fairly basic mountain bike that's comfortable. I have a cheap azz Mongoose (remember when they were good? mine's not) that I got for free.
Does anybody know of a bike that will fit a person with short legs and long arms? I'm about 5'9" and I wear shirts with a 34"-35" sleeve (~74" wingspan) and pants with a 30" inseam. Bikes with a decent stand-over height, put me way too close to the handlebars. Bikes with a decent reach put me way too far from the ground (not scared of heights, worried about my junk).
Mostly for commuting from house 2 bus stop 2 work, but not paved/hard surfaces exclusively.
Any suggestions?
