Saddle Setback
Hey,
I'm a heavier rider 95kg and in a awkward situation where I feel more comfortable having my saddle slightly more forward to open the hip angle and get around the front of the pedal stroke, but get a lot of weight on my hands.
Moving the saddle back I feel like I'm slightly reaching foward with my foot at the 3oclock position, and maybe sliding forward on the saddle, but the pressure is less on my hands.
70mm cranks, but I also have a long-standing knee pain, so conscious I don't want to be too far forward and close the knee angle.
I was getting some saddle sores but recently switched to the SLR Boost which seems narrower at the nose and a lot more comfortable.
Is this something I'd just need to adjust to and force myself to sit further back?
