I guess we just don't speak the same language. Even your responses to my quoted statements don't sound as if you are fully understanding what I ask.

Certainly I'm not understanding what exactly...

I didn't know how your comment was intended or whom you were addressing. So I probably didn't understand it the way you wanted it understood. Helps to provide some extra info as to what you are...

So are you saying that the bike frame must always be perpendicular to the surface and my butt cannot be off to one side while stopped? I suppose I shouldn't tippy toe with the foot on the ground...

I'm seldom in that big a hurry to go. To me putting your foot in one pedal, pushing off and sling your leg over the saddle and going seems much like a rodeo rider jumping on a running horse. I...

I don't think strength is directly related to muscle mass. I've seen some spindly arm people pick up way more than I can. And I've seen some guys with massive toned looking biceps that can't lift...

I actually saw a step through road bike the other day at a shop, or possibly it was a straight handle bar. But it looked very modern and stylish and had a good complement of gears for this areas...

I still don't understand why the lowest part of your body is going over what for me is the highest part of a bike. My foot never goes over the seat.

Although I haven't watched a video of myself...

I read your original post. It doesn't give me any idea as to how you actually mount and dismount your bike. Do you swing your leg over the back tire to get on/off or do you do something else?

You...

Well that is understandable too. It's just that the OP has not said that what you are describing was his issue. So how the thing with dropper posts, top tubes being lower and other things figured...

Clyde1820 Now that's informative and tells me more. So I understand what the deal is for you. I expect that one day I'll be there too. I've pondered what to do if and when that happens. So far,...

I don't see where is matters much. No part of a bike should interfere with getting on or off the bike unless you ride in a kilt and are just being modest by not slinging your leg over the back. Or...

I've always gone over the rear wheel with mine....
