Much easier than trying to ride from the saddle all the time.
Stopping and starting is safe, simple and secure.
Just get out of a saddle when you need to.

A small skill to learn for optimum pedalling.

rgds, sreten.

KOPS is for road bikes, not sit up and begs.
Thank you, but I'm unable to do it. As I've mentioned, I have some physical limitations. Mounting like that is to hard with arthritis, a fused neck and damaged tail bone. Suffice it to say I've had enough crashes trying to do just that. Thank you, once again for trying to help me.
