Double stroller for tall parents?

Hi ladies! I've never posted here before but I'm at a loss and need help!

We are looking for a double stroller that doesn't cost $400+ that has handles tall enough for my husband who is 6'4. I really like the functionality of the Graco Ready2Grow stroller, but the handles are way too short. My DD still rides in a stroller regularly so I want an stroller that allows the option for both sitting and standing. 

We also tired the Sit n Stand but my daughter had to bend her legs in a weird angle to use the foot rest (does anyone else have this problem?)

Any tall parents out there with a great double stroller?

I would look at a Bob, Phil & Teds, Mountain Buggy or similar. Not only great for tall parents, but tall kids. Strollers like the BJ City Select aren't great for tall kids, they don't fit the seats long. And I stay clear of Graco strollers and sit and stands in general, its like driving a tank. If strollers like what I suggested are out of your price range new, be on the look out for second hand. They tend to have very little wear, and usually decent priced used.

We have the Bumbleride Indie Twin and I LOVE LOVE LOVE it.  I'm 5'9" and can push it perfectly.  It's a little pricey but they were just on Zulily (might still be).  They are totally worth the money, or look for one used.
