Don’t forget to take a tape measure to the garage and rise your saddle by 5mm, unless you end up exposing the safe limit marker. :wink:
As someone with short legs (I typically buy 30″ inside legs trousers) and a long torso for ~5’10”, I do wonder if really I should be using shorter cranks on my bikes.
The Wazoo, like many fatbikes, comes with 175mm cranks. I’m sure encourages me to push the limits on raising the saddle height so as to try and get my knees relatively lower compared to my hips at the top of the stroke, to reduce pressure on my knees.
Even on previous bikes that had 172.5mm cranks, I’ve always been a “spinner” rather than a “grinder” as regards gear selection, to try and protect my knees.
