I think with a 32" inseam, the 19" is going to be a good fit for you. As tuna said, regardless of the one you pick, it will need to be setup to your particular needs. Stem and bar changes are...

3pdrcannon reviewed Blythe Island
Fun short tight turning trail, it's fairly flat and was covered in pine straw. This trail isn't well marked or maintained. There are a lot of spiders and ticks. It's also very rooty. This isn't a bad trail for south east Georgia, but it's not well maintained. Don't go out of your way, but if you are in the area it's a fun quick ride.

I don't really consider this to be a "mountain biking trail" because it is paved, but I like it.

Heya and welcome to the site! I would suggest that you ride the Schwinn and save your money for a real FS mtb if that is what you're aiming for. Do not waste your money on the Walgoose or the like....
