if you are getting a bike so you can do freestyle tricks on it, or I guess take it to the bmx track (does anyone even do that anymore? its all DJ bikes now, right?) then absolutely get that type of bike. but I can't vouch for the robustness of a no-name bike taking that kind of abuse. so, no, don't get this particular bike.

for riding to get places, or going on pleasure rides, it doesn't matter that you're a manlet, that bike is still insanely small.
get literally anything else, but if you're riding around your city or town, we recommend a road bike, but a rigid 90s mtb or like a hybrid is ok but put on slick tires.
if you live rural or there's lots of dirt and gravel roads around you, you could get a gravel bike, or rigid mtb or hybrid with semi slicks or small knobbies.
for full on challenging off-road, you'll want a modern style mtb with at least front suspension and gnarly tires.
you're right about needing a bike that fits you, it's super important, because you need proper leg extension. pic related. this is way more important than the brand.

the downsides are from having it too low, genius.
