You’re not going to believe this!
Just got back from having my TT bike setup redone, and the seat had to be lowered 7cm (yes that’s cm folks, not mm) from the original setup setting!!!! Small wonder I sustained a serious hip injury and could never match the times I did on my old “Ally Raleigh” road bike.
In fact quite amazing that I managed to ride at all!
My own inexperience is really at cause in that I mistakenly believed in the technology and expert opinion which maintained that I would “just need to get used to it”, and that this “could take 3 months”….
Perseverance is an admirable quality, but to do so blindly can be a very costly.
It’s a school of hard knocks!
