Ruben Xaus is 6ft tall!!!!

Just don't fall off as much and you will be fine:bouncy::bouncy::burn:

Seriously though rearsets and adjustable handlebars should make it acceptable.

I'm 6' 1'' and 14 stone and have no problems on my 748. In fact being tall usually means longer arms which helps with the riding position.

Yellow bikes have a better riding positon, Red ones are known for being very uncomfortable.
