Ok so Ive taken my new bike on its first ride and I have a few niggles I need help with.
The main one being Quad pain during and after riding.
Im not sure whats causing it to be honest but what part of bike set up would be a contributing factor ?
Ive set the saddle height correctly ( bare foot on pedal at bottom of stroke and leg straight but not stretched)
Not sure about fore/aft saddle position, bike came with a 20mm layback post and I have changed for an inline dropper.
Also changed the stem from 60mm down to 40mm with wider bars 720 to 780mm.
The bike also has a 170mm chainset fitted.
Bike feels nice and sprightly but Im getting a nagging pain in both quad muscles when riding and then for a bit after.
Its not as though its down to not riding as I commute on my road bike to work.
Set up feels very different between the two bikes.
Is it going to be a case of man the F%*K up or is it something else?
Would the 170 cranks have an effect?
How about seat angle?
Very happy with the bike overall though.
