I ride a 1065 levelboss and can spin pretty well (only slightly over 180 because i'm not that good, but i can spin nonetheless) so you wouldn't have a problem with a 1070. Not sure about the 1090 though...

why such a high bb?
echo control ftw?
basically if yo uever like to manual go for a shorter wb. if youre over 6'2 and pretty much never manual, the 1090 is 4 u.

urban mostly.
i like natural too
but i like urban streety style riding.
im like 6'0
I am 6ft 4", and my Czar Ivan is 1100. I ride street mainly, and if you have seen any of my videos I love my spins and manuals. It feels like a short bike because of the high bb, I got used to it easily and it is nice for both street and natural stuff, get the longer model seeing as your tall enough.

1070 for sure. I had a 1090 one for a few months. And actually it measured 1103, with a Hifi fork. I pretty much hated it, it was good for big taps and gaps, but that's the only good thing I found in the long frame. Everything else became harder, then it was on my old BT 5.0
Recently I've swapped to a 1065 BT, and it is MUCH better, only thing that is a bit harder are big taps, but you'll get the hang of them in a few weeks.
EDIT: I just went and measured my 1065 BT. Came out, that my short bike isn't as short as I thought :dunno: (It measured at about 1077mm)
