5' 11"
Bike inseam in bare feet 33"
Preferred distance from top of pedal surface to top of saddle surface at the center of the saddle is 34.5"
On Brooks saddles, a bit higher because they sag a bit
On bikes I ride in cycling shorts, a bit lower because of the pad's thickness
I use SPD pedals on most bikes, and bike shoes with recessed SPD cleats. If riding with casual shoes, like Vans, then the saddle feels too high.
I have large feet (size 45 euro/10.5 US) and tend to pedal toe-down
