Retul Fit - before/after pics

The Parlee after last night's Retul Fit...saddle raised an inch and moved forward an inch...I may be able to go to a non-setback post at this rate, at least I no longer need the 25mm setback on the Ritchey...which is only 300 mm length and right at the minimum insertion point now. Apparently my stem height should go no lower. Went for a short 25 mile test ride today to see how it felt, without HR monitor or anything else, to get a more seat of the pants sensing. It was subtle but felt noticeably easier to generate same general speed/power.

The "before" set-up is basically a continuation of settings from a 3-4 year old static/BG fit...

Bike is a Parlee Z5 SLi M/L Tall...



Here's the "before" from last week...almost the same backdrop and angle...
