21 inch frame bike

I'm treating myself to a new bike for commuting and cycle path riding. So probably a hybrid.

Can anyone recommend a bike with 21 inch frame and low crossbar?

I read about Liv on old threads on here but I can't find out what height their large frames are. Or are Dawes any good?

I had a small liv. I am 5 ft 7 and I think it was a 17 inch frame?

Do you like your Liv Schmoobarb? They seem good so I am leaning towards a large Liv. It's my first brand new bike as an adult so it's exciting and I want to get it right.

Yes I did, I loved it. I sold it though and replaced it with an electric bike!

I love the giant liv bikes. I have a couple of their carbon racers and I bought my Ds their full suspension mountain bike
However I would suggest going to an independent bike shop and trying a couple of different brands out as some fit people with short legs and long bodies and vice versa.
