Actually, you're right. My train of thought was off-track. My height/bike combination makes it difficult to properly tilt even with one foot on the ground. On flat ground i can't even keep my right foot on the pedal while standing on my left and the mental image i had in mind was standing over the middle bar with both feet on the ground without hanging off it off my groin, and the tilt required even for that is way too much. Narrow spaces excacerbate this.
And before you ask: Yes, i tried the next-smaller bike type, they're considerably slower for me in transit.

- Mithaldu 11y agoI didn't know that was a thing. Thanks for mentioning it, i'll have to try and find one of those! :D
