Mmm, tricolor...

Looking at that saddle, it doesn't seem like the bike is set up properly. The saddle should not be nose-down like that, and as a rule of thumb, should be set high enough so that your legs straighten completely if you try pedalling with your heels on the pedals. A too-low saddle robs power and can cause knee pain.
