Built a scott foil lastweek as some of you may have seen its a size 54 and im 5'11 ive had 54's before but just came from a boardman 56, the top tube is the same length so i though id buy the same length stem and it would be fine but my hands arms and lower back are in agony.
saddle height is correct and ive been messing with fore/aft adjustment to no avail, but its an inline seatpost and i dont think they do setback which all my bikes usually have.
When i lean right back in the saddle i feel more comftorable in the arms but not the legs, do you think i need a longer stem? Although im already running a 120mm which is long i suppose.
Ill get some photos on the trainer later on . It feels as if the bars are too low down which is putitng alot of pressure on my arms and lower back, but the stem is flipped and right up on the steerer.
