Hmm not unusually short
. I'm 5'6" but I figured longer legs would be more problematic. See my foot itself has to bend a little higher up I'd say..or if the leg bolsters were higher then I could rest my leg higher and not have to"pull" my leg/foot as high up. It's more the grabbing point of the brake seems higher so me tendency is to push more so my foot is flatter. Hard to explain. Another example is the minivan. It has a very high lazy boy like seat but the pedal sits closer to the floor and the grabbing point is lower so no problems.
