I'm playing around with my saddle height and feel that I have a comfortable height. when I pedal at a moderate cadence then I have no rocking of my hips. However, if I drop it in a very low gear at a higher cadence, then I have significant rocking.

Is this a sign of my saddle height being too high??

Thanks.

That could be from a cadence you're lower body is not comfortable with yet. I'm just getting to the point where pedaling at 95-100 doesn't feel like I'm out of control or another way to but it. Feeling I'm behind the rate I'm spinning at. As in, out of time. Pushing a bit late on each stroke. To me it feels like I'm windmilling or bouncing on the seat. I'm a year old rookie so I could be just full of crap.

Gyro, you're right. It takes practice to pedal smoothly at high cadence. Paco97, your seat is not too high.

Please note my spelling above. "You're" is a contraction of "you are." "Your" is a possessive pronoun, i.e. it's yours and not mine or his or theirs.
