If you're sliding forward, there is some force causing you to slide forward.
- Saddle angle. If your saddle is tilted forward, it will tend to pitch your forward.
- Saddle already too far forward. Perhaps counter-intuitive, but if your saddle is forward, pedaling forces will push your forward.
- Reach is too long for you. You're unconsciously scooting up for a more comfortable. Shorten the stem.
Moving the saddle forward is not the correct response to sliding forward.
I did forget to mention earlier, as you move your saddle aft, you'll need to lower it slights since it's moving further away from the BB.
