Ive just bought a new bike and im in the process of setting up the contact points for ime instead of the previous owner.
whats the correct way of doing it then ?? stem and bars first or seatpost height/saddle position?
with regards to saddle position is their a correct way to set this i.e should your saddle be set so that when your are sat on it with your feet on the pedals in a horizontal position your knee should be just behind the pedal spindle
or
should the saddle be set a certain distance behind the back of the stem(i was shown a way that you put your elbow on the end of your seat and then use the length of your forearm and hand to measure the distance!! this was a very old roadie though!)
whats more important bar height or distance away from you??
or is all of the above a load of pish and its all down to personal preference??
cheers
