I don't know how much taller it is, but it is noticeably taller than the stocker. The foam is rather stiff so you kind of get a lot of bang for your buck as far as the seat height goes. I have about a 34" inseam and I find the tall seat pretty comfortable as my legs don't feel cramped. If I'm sitting up on the front of the seat I'm on my toes to reach the ground.
