I was at 74cm.
It really helped me develop my dribbling of the ball and I enjoyed being able to pull off shots from really close to my bike.
I did not find reach a problem as I am pretty flexible.
However, recently I did find that constantly pushing my body to just connect with the ball was straining my back (flexibility ≠ core strength).
Consequently I now use 87cm. I like it.
