Same as you i can only get my tippy toes down with both legs, but can get one leg down flat, trick is to get you bum off the seat and let the bike lean the opposite way slightly and you'll buy yourself several cm's in reach.

only down side is to reverse i have to get off it :P
duuuude r u serous? xt660x is has a 34" seat
