My question to you people is: how do you measure saddle height on your bikes? Do you measure to the sit bone area or the forward flat area of the saddle?
Well, even if your in pain, you MUST have your seat at an exact 27.33 inches...otherwise your screwed. If you drop your seat to where its comfortable....something bad might happen.
I have my seat at an exact 27.33 inches....just like they tell me.
Naw man come on....i dont think anybody measures how high they have their seat up....on my xc bike I just put it to where it feels good, and then if I have to lower it I scrape a line in the seatpost to know how far to put it back up!
