even if you set up the cross check beach cruiser style it will still be a much fater bike....
maybe even a long haul trucker for added legth and stability if you want a cruiser???
i am thinking your never gonna be able to get your bars quite as high (relative to the seat) as that first trek though no matter what you do... you might be able to get close to the rivendell but oyu'd devinitely need a HIGH stem combined with some high bars.
