If you ever find yourself unintentionally sliding forward on the saddle when developing power, then sometimes that is an indication your are not balanced over the BB for the power you normally put out. Sometimes it's other stuff that causes you to slide forward.


I might overshoot it and go straight to the middle. Then I'll be able to see a drastic result more immediately. Then maybe correct half the previous change each time.

But if every movement is not better, then maybe you really need to push the saddle way forward which is where mine is right now till my shorter stem comes in.
