Now this is gonna be vague, but any help will be appreciated.
I'm having problems in my gentlemans area, feels like too much pressure, and occasionally on my hands/wrists. I've set my bike up so that my leg is slightly bent when pedal is at 6 o'clock and saddle is level. Had a look at the above Hogg link, tried the centre of bb to top of saddle measurements (Lemonds method), that would mean dropping my saddle 4cms, which seems a crazy amount.
So I've dropped the saddle 10mm and moved it back a tad to take some pressure off my hands.
Can't afford bike fit at the mo, so advice from those in the know would be greatly appreciated.
Jon
