My daughter's bike has a Thomson Masterpiece also.
It still seemed like the type of generalization I expect around here. Nevertheless, the OP hadn't written anything that would rule out the Thomson and now has written:

OP, your amount of setback should be determined by your placement over the pedals and not on how stretched out you are. You can change your stem for the latter. The Thomson is quite easy to adjust and even the setback model looks just fine, IMHO.
