Trying to set up my position on a TT bike (Planet X Stealth). Not finding it easy, to be honest, and don't know what I'm doing. I'm not very bendy and find getting low and aero difficult.

Any handy hits or links to other sites?

Ta.

    Why not take a pic and then post it in the TT position thread sticky in the Training section?

    Why not get a bike fit?

    I set mine up at first by taking my road bike position when low on the hoods and revolving it forward around the BB making sure I preserved the hip angle. This meant moving the saddle forward and bars down. I then spent a lot of time fine tuning (and still am). You may need to do some work on your flexibility.
    A proper bike fit is probably a good idea but make sure that whoever does it understands TT fitting.

    This is where I am now.
