Getting a bike fit is a good way to go on any bike. A bike fit is more than just slight adjustments and quick stuff that you learned on Youtube. Maybe some bad fitters do that but knowing several fitters and having had a fit myself it is a lot more. At our shop we have a Retül certified fitter and in his road and MTB fits he goes through fitness, asks a lot of questions and also does 3d motion capture to figure out the ideal position for you. Yes you can play around a bunch and get a little better but it doesn't replace a fit. We fit everyone from the Roadies to people looking purely for upright comfort and one thing you get with it is the ability to transfer the fit to another bike very easily.

I have never understood the Cypress and similar bikes denoted as "comfort" bikes but are so heavy and run narrower tires. I would want a nice step through quality steel frame with clearance for nice wide tires and good quality parts so I can shift and brake well.
