They came in two sizes 22" and 24" (plus a step through), I ride the 24"
yes I am tall.
They have rod brakes which are a bit finicky to set up and don't always work as well as cable operated brakes. Some parts can be a bit difficult to chase down.
They ride like a stretch limo once you get them up to speed.
Love mine.
