For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.The height of the seat should be so that when you're leg is extended furthest whilst pedalling (the longest point on the full turn of the pedal) the knee is as straight as possible without actually locking back against the joint, i.e. there is still the faintest of bend forwards. The height of the handlebars is then down to personal comfort but usually roughly the same height as the seat. (Large people like myself tend to have the handlebar higher to put less pressure on the arms).
