Out-riding the Black Dog
Today I dropped my headset by 5mm. I aim to shrink my aerobic profile, but by tiny increments as I ride far rather than fast (Audax) so my comfort is priority. For all I know I may want to go back to my previous, upright position.
In response to dropping the headset, I tilted my saddle forwards a little. Early days, but it feels comfortable. My knee bend feels slightly different but I haven’t really ridden in the new set up long enough to know if my knees or back will hint towards lowering or raising the saddle or indeed moving the saddle forwards or backwards.
Is there anything I should be considering in regards to saddle height or fore/aft position?
Thank you as always.
