Saddle Height
Hi Guys,
I'm interested in your saddle heights!
I'm pretty tall at 6'5" and I run my saddle height at 910mm (measured from the centre of the BB to the top of the saddle).
I'm particularly interested in your height in comparison to the rule of thumb that says your saddle height should be (inseam in cm * .883). I have an inseam of 37.5 inches which would equate to a saddle height of 841mm using the formula. BTW - I know rules of thumb are just that and everyone is different, etc...but I'm just wondering if most people are around that sort of ballpark?
The reason I ask is that whenever I tell someone I ride a 63cm SuperSix with a 350mm seatpost almost fully extended they look at me funny and say "that's impossible, you're tall but not that tall".
So, although I'm comfortable I have a nagging thought that says perhaps I've got it all wrong and I could lower my seat by 3-4cm and sit "in the bike" a whole lot more???
