  • What would you recommend? I was just aiming for high at the back and everything sloping down, trying to follow the angle of the top tube as closely as possible. Any feedback is totally appreciated

  • trying to follow the angle of the top tube as closely as possible

    This is not how it works...

    Saddle needs to be level. Now you're constantly pressuring your wrists because you'll slip of your seat. Lower it and level it. Mount a normal angle stem and you'll be surprised how much better it'll ride (and look). Just my 2p.

  • Thanks mate, I levelled the saddle a bit more and I've got another couple stems kicking about that I'll give a bash over the next few days and see how it feels. Appreciate the insight!

  • Going to give this a shot over the weekend and see if I can notice the difference, more level on the saddle, different stem and some risers. Like I was saying to JOnathan, probably need to up the frame size to drop the seatpost much, but need to sell one of the other bikes I've got kicking about first. Thanks for all the tips!

  • Those risers are waaay more comfortable, and I can feel an improvement in power transfer and everything, thanks again!
