I’m afraid my jumping anything days are long gone.
I’m just an overweight, old guy that still loves to cruise around the neighborhood on my bikes . And my other hobby is changing things around on them , searching for that “Holy Grail” bike combination.
BTW , by moving my saddle up and forward on the Electras , my knees aren’t bothering me anymore than when I ride my regular pedal position bikes . Now I have to worry about getting the saddle too high , that makes my hip ache .
I’ve found Setting up a forward pedal position bike is a little different than setting up a regular frame . Lowering my gear ratios has helped too .
