not sure about the long legs - your saddle height (76.5) seems a touch low for a leggy 5'11." >I could place the handlebar below the saddle... Oh wait! That's how I rode >>pre-Rivendell and I had the hand, neck and shoulder pain... there are many variables involved in a good bike fit. lots and lots and lots of folks ride with the bars below the saddle with zero problems. not meaning to take away from the "bars-up" approach, but it's not the only way to be comfortable on a bike. have you considered a professional bike fitting? it's not cheap, but some folks really benefit from that. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
