After a few months of riding I think it's time to check that the seat height is set correctly. What is the best way to ensure that the seat height is correct?

Thanks guys. I raised the saddle by a couple of inches until my leg was almost straight with the heel resting on the pedal, and the ride was a lot more comfortable. I've been riding with the saddle too low.0
