If they're on bikes that are too big, they'd HAVE to have the saddle lower to even use it! Not much chance of bent knees there....
That's my backup bike. I'm 5'9 on a 24" trek 613 with a 34" standover. Waiting for my damn tires to arrive so i can go back to my itty bitty miyata.

(yes I post the image every chance i can)
