I just found a saddle that I think I like (Selle San Marco Glamour Aspide), but, even with several tweaks, I don’t feel exactly right as far as my position on the bike. Since the old saddle I had was leather, it sagged like a hammock when I sat on it, so, where you’d normally measure from the BB to the top of the saddle to determine the right height to set a new saddle, I couldn’t do that since I have no idea where the saddle sagged to when I sat on it. It was also very long, so the fore\/aft positioning wasn’t that important because there was so much “sittable” area.<\/p>\n

SO….
\nThis afternoon, I’m riding over to Bikes Plus<\/a> for a fitting with Karen. Hopefully this will be exactly what I need to finally be comfortable on my bike. I am hesitant to say that I have found a saddle that works, so I want to make sure that if it doesn’t work, it’s not because of improper bike fit. Updates will follow!<\/p>\n

UPDATE:
\nIt seems I did a good job of setting everything up- Karen didn’t feel like she needed to make any changes. If you’re in the Memphis area, I highly recommend going to see her for bike fits. She is very nice, keeps all of your measurements on record, and won’t rush you through any part of the fit process (not to mention very knowledgeable).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
