And a bike fitter wouldn't give specific advice over the net...

yea i bought a new white soma hisan saddle today and after installing, adjusted the height. The bikes not to big for me, i just feel the way i explained it made it appear that way. When i sat on the bike in the state of the pics above, BOTH of my toes could touch the ground at the same time, ensuring its not to big for me, just not adjusted correctly. I have sense raised the seat 2 inches or so, not being able to touch the ground unless i tip over, but still having my knee joint slightly bent when peddles at 6 o clock. I refereed to the link and think i finally got it where it needs to be.

i would take pics with me on it but not by my camera at the moment.
