    You lost me I'm afraid. My reading isn't too hot when reading something without punctuation.

    I think the problem stems from having too large a frame - I think you need to see an expert bike fitter like Paul Hewitt rather than Evans. He'll make suggestions, it'd be upto you whether or not you stick with. It's a bit difficult getting decent fitting advice off randomers on a forum.
    I like bikes...

    You didn't say how you arrived at your seat hight.
    Now where's that "Get Out of Crash Free Card"
