I realise that all seats are different but it will give me an idea.
Really like your swift setup. Something to aspire to.
Nice comment that you added. Good to know that you still rate this little gem after all these years.
I used to have dura ace wheels but I am too heavy for them and they were mushy and I started breaking spokes. I got some custom wheels built for my weight (only 84kg but thrash my bikes in crits) and the difference is outstanding. So your swift would be a similar standard - nice.
What is your height Jur? (can't quite tell from the photo)
Your bike setup is agressive so it's a good comparison.
I just looked at your No of posts. Dude you are dedicated.
OK, my Swift is 51cm from tip to bar camp centre, 20". The curving stem riser is about 4" extension, so you have an inch to add there, and about 2-3" to add at the saddle, since my seatpost does not have setback plus the Brooks can't be set back much at all. So that gives 24" maximum from saddle tip to bar clamp centre.
I am 178cm.
