Nice bike, that looks like it's a pretty supple ride. Is that a root beer color? It's hard to tell from the pics.

Your probably right. funny. I am short wasted. my crank is 177.5. their was a choice made to buy the 62 cm over the 60. hence a long top tube. so.... i can make it with a straight post. and 175 crank. (you know... knee over peddle thing)
anyway.... i am still learning.... a super misfit 2 years ago.... better now. I am just now learning how to climb.... but the seat post is on my list....

get a look seatpost that is adjustable

Submitted by danvprod on 08/02/2009.

You should get one of those look carbon adjustable seatposts. You can fix your TT problem. The other option is the fast forward type seatposts but they are ugly as heck. http://www.ediscountbike.com/Shop/Control/Product/fp/vpid/7111117/vpcsid/0/SFV/32807 something like this. Sweet bike BTW. What is the carbon-fibre type? Do u know? I'd be interested. Everything made by them is really top-notch.

this stuff

Submitted by mtravisf on 08/25/2009.

i'm with ya... i like the deda post... it is light and strong... now a year has gone buy and this just continues to work for me... probably a straight post would do... maybe i have gotten use to the look of this and ... that is that
i all most ride out of the saddle more than in.... the launch i get from this setup seems to work just fine.
but, who knows... and thanks

i think he's laughing

Submitted by hipster on 07/20/2009.

i think he's laughing because such a nice frame should not be misfit. this particular fit adjustment on the bike is very unorthodox and more than likely inefficient. he probably finds it comical.

who are you to him? what does that matter? this bike is in the context of this web community, and he is commenting on the bike and your comment. not who you are.

bike fit and so on

Submitted by mtravisf on 08/25/2009.

i have been riding bikes for 50 and years... fit... what... like i bet you know...
what is orthodox this year is out next year....
how efficient the the bike set up is.... depends mostly on my build, so... what do you know?
what junk do you ride....
