>> I don't have to bend forwards too much to reach the handle bars
"Touring" bikes often have higher bars and a more sitty-up rising position.
Bad neck in my case. I'll wait until I get the bike and see how it is. If necessary I will buy an adjustable stem so I can move the bars upwards and backwards.

The bike I originally ordered would have come with one.

Sometimes the specs online will have the geometry / dimensions so you can compare e.g. reach and stack with a bike you know fits you. See diagram on this page is you don't know what I mean.
