I have the Cypress SX in a size 19" which is the same frame. I am 69" tall with similar inseam. This bike, though in the Comfort class, seems to lean the rider forward more than other bikes like the lower Cypresses. It's more in the flat bar road bike class, or Speedbike class. I like that personally.

You chose a great bike and I suggest you keep it. There are a number of things you could do if you want a more upright posture:

--replace the stem with a higher rise one, or buy one of those adjustable stems so you can dial it in over time

--replace the flat bars with riser handlebars.

Since it's so new, you could probably get your shop to swap that stuff out for next to nothing.
