  • I’m 6’5 and use the telescopic seatpost. I do like quite a bit of handlebar drop on my bikes and am quite flexible. Maybe I should go and test the S version before deciding anything. The extra reach would be nice too. I do think that I will just end up buying the JK midrise bar.

  • I suspect the drop might be too much and your weight might be pitched too far forward.
    I previously had the telescopic and it annoyed. My mate who is 6'4'' initially had the telescopic/'M' set-up and where I 6'3'' then the telescopic might be my friend.

    I also suspect your dealer is doing their best to satisfy your desired position.
    Yes, test ride the flat bar, but just remember you might be comparing 'extended' vs 'telescopic'.

    I look forward to a pic of the JK mid-rise
