I guess they will fit because my in seam length is 31" and height is 5'7", weight is 50 kg. They are designed for 31'+ inseam and 5'3"+ height. Only problem is the frame size, my frame size is M (17-18" but 19" will also do):

but both bikes you mentioned has 21" frame, both are available in the market.

The tires are thinner, but still big enough to handle some rough roads.
I liked that bike most but stealing of the saddle is the issue. But then I though I may be driving in the night and I have buy
lights and the I have to remove them (they are manually removable and hence I need to carry the the backpack anyway, so why not remove the saddle too but won the saddle become loose after I remove/put it 1000 times ? ). I wonder how much 16 LUX front light can help in night.
