The two bikes are close enough that posture preference matters more than the overall score.
Rider fit: reaching the ground
The Sondors Metacycle has a 800 mm seat; the Yamaha NEO's sits at 795 mm — a 5 mm difference. As a rule of thumb you flat-foot a bike when your inseam roughly matches its seat height: about 80 cm for the Sondors Metacycle and 80 cm for the Yamaha NEO's.
That makes the Yamaha NEO's the easier reach to the ground — the safer pick for shorter riders or anyone who wants both feet planted at a stop — while the Sondors Metacycle gives taller riders more legroom and a more open knee bend. Load your own height and inseam into the simulator to see exactly how each one fits you.
