How tall is it?
Was cruising some FB marketplace ads and came across this. Not interested but wondered how tall is it? How tall would the rider be to ride something like this?

Probably 68cm I have a 68cm Schwinn Voyager. Sadly, the companies just used the same tubing used in standard frames. The Voyageur wiggles like a wet noodle

Hopefully long arms go along with long legs so the rider can get at those reachdown changers.

Should be a 27" frame, or 68.5cm center-to-top. I'm 6'5" and can just stand over the top tube. Suuuuper "French Fit." 
The last one I had was a Fuji del Rey in that size. Nice rider and could fit true 38-40mm tires, though that put the top tube up even higher. Panasonic would offer models up to 28" or 71cm center-to-top. I can't stand over those without singing soprano.
