I think you probably stand a lot when you pedal. I wouldn’t say I use my new to me MTB like I should but on the road more. I can’t bump and jump so much anymore but like the MTB ride. Sitting down for lengths of time has the top of my knees aching just after a few days rolling around.double checked the fit to before I started. Really like the Trek and hoping to find a match to the STX crank in 170.
