Don't ride with your crotch resting on the top tube?

The only time you need to worry about standover height is if you're going to have both feet go down hard to the ground. Road cyclists tend to use a pedal retention system, so that will be very unlikely to happen. For controlled stops and starts, you only need one foot down.
