Bike Seat, soft and comfortable Bike Saddle shock absorbing Bicycle Seat, for MTB Mountain Bike folding Bike Road Bike Men Women

Product Information

So I'd ridden the bike for a couple of 30 mile rides and found it to be comfortable so stuck with it. The saddle can go MUCH higher if needed - the frame is a small (16 inch), I tried both medium and small and medium would be too big for jumping and decent off road stuff as I would have needed the saddle at its lowest just for normal riding!

I had a Raleigh 531c Panasonic team replica and like the featured one had the same type of fastback stays. Its counter-intuitive, but saddles with heavier padding tend to be less comfortable after not very long, more prone to rubbage and chafing. The charger does not change from green to red and does not charge so I am selling for spares or repair.It was second hand and I'd previously borrowed it from the guy I bought it from (my brother in law).

The problem with measuring a seat tube even with accurate calipers is that the internal measurement at the top of the tube, i. The sit bones are the sorest part, the problem i am having is i find i am sitting quite forward on the seat but i would not say the handle bars are to far forward so do not think it is a reach problem, seat is set at its most forward position, i do find im quite bent over like on a road bike as the seat is a little higher than the handle bars, if i lower the seat then my leg will not be straight on the bottom stroke of the pedal, i purchased the 18 inch frame as i am 5ft 8 and think the 20 inch frame would have been to big, I am thinking i need a seat that is a bit wider especially nearer the front.

Proper saddle height will sort it, otherwise check for clothes chafing as that won't be comfortable.

A very rough guide for a leisure/touring cyclist is to start by setting your saddle so that your knee is over the pedal spindle ( viewtopic. The replacement has horizontal dropouts AND an oversize bottom bracket shell (re Niggle's post above). For instance, I've never done anything with a threadless headset before, so now I've learned how to fit a complete new semi-integrated headset - or at least it seems OK. Whilst this bike has been brilliant with no problems I have however been involved in a serious accident very recently as the saddle bolt snapped in half through the thred in mid cycle.Bolts are serviceable in the way they can be cleaned and greased - dirt from the back wheel can get into the mechanism, corroding it. If i can just sort out why my pedals keep coming loose ecery few days i will have the perfect commuting bike for my needs. The rail on a cheap saddle recently failed on me after only a couple of years on the bike - yet again I failed to take note of the creaking. The reach may seem okay with the saddle in that position but it doesn't sound like an ideal saddle position. million ) ASMR PORSCHE CARRERA GT The Porsche Carrera GT is a high-performance sports car that was produced by the German automaker Porsche from 2004 to 2007.
