Headshot Posted May 31, 2016 Share smaller.jpgI see your problem with the fork steerer length  - your seat is several cm higher than mine.  Myles, that seat angle is brilliant on climbs - my seat post does't allow me to get nearly as much of an angle on mine...

Also Kulhavy's reasoning. Will try it. And yeh - Adam needs a super high rise bar. That or a mondraker zero stem, but not zero. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That or a mondraker zero stem, but not zero. dont overthink the seat angle, its just what i find comfortable, anything flatter puts pressure in the wrong places and doesnt feel right. i think if i were more normally proportioned, and my fork had an uncut steerer so i could run my bars higher the seat would be flatter.

Or just strong torso muscles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
