Bike fit notes after the new saddle
Saddle height and setback after the swap, and the numbers to go back to if anything starts to hurt.
What changed
The new saddle is wider at the back with a center cutout. Numbness on rides over an hour has gone.
Numbers
Saddle height 742 mm from the center of the bottom bracket along the seat tube. Setback 58 mm behind the bottom bracket. Saddle level, nose down half a degree.
Warning signs
Knee pain at the front means the saddle is too low; at the back, too high. Move in 2 mm steps and ride a week between changes.
