Ok yup good height. I'm 6-3 and with the 20 inch I still get wind but it's way more manageable than the 14 and I wear a shorty helmet. I honestly don't mind some wind just not the buffering. I have no head BF with the 20. I probably could have gone up to 22 but I'm happy 😊. Looking forward to your report.
