  • Rule of thumb for is to set your saddle horizontal. For saddles with a dip, this means setting them so the front and back are at the same height. Then ride, and change the angle if that's not comfortable.

    If you struggle with set up, it may be worth going to your LBS and have a word with them.

    While your're there, buy some spare tubes to keep him happy :o
