Cheers, makes sense. I've stuck with 165's on recent bikes due to a knee niggle but I'm gonna give the 172.5's a go that just came with my new bike as it's probably gonna end up being short rides only.

So saddle down and possibly back a little.

Should prob move saddle nose forward instead of back to maintain the same position, id think.

With around a 73degree seat angle when you move the saddle down 3mm it comes forward about 1mm anyway. So if you lower it 8mm to go from 165s to 172.5s it’ll come forward about 2-3mm anyway.
