Saddle height is very person specific. I went with Riv method of PBH minus 10 for a saddle height of 72cm. Earlier this year I developed knee pain that prevented me from riding for 2 months. I went to a fitter who raised my saddle by 1.5cm and it has made a world of difference. This was in addition

Roadeo does sound like it would fit the bill. A larger saddle bag like the Kevins Bag stated above or maybe even the Mark's Rack with the Small Trunksack. You can fit a lot in there. http://www.flickr.com/photos/ironsightimages/sets/72157623465484739/ On Mar 11, 2:27 pm, Bill Connell wrote: > I
