Something is off somewhere. Where does the 1 X 1.09 come from? So far as I know, Lemond's formula is .883 X crotch heigth, then add the crank length for the heigth from the pedal. The length of the foot enters into it also because a long foot effectively adds to leg length. So after the .883 measurement, the saddle may need to go up or down a cm or so and if you pedal toe down, that also adds to effective leg length. In any case just a bit of adjustment after the measurement and initial saddle heigth should be all that is needed. https://forums.roadbikereview.com/ge...it-183302.html
