The rider is pointing his toes down which is usually a sign the saddle is set too high. It also just looks too high.

what i hate about this type of riding, they never just go and ride!

[divinexbrutality]

@ideasoner of course people just go and ride...but even if you the right sized bike that dosn't mean you're getting the most out of it. By doing this you're creating more comfort, optimizing power and truly getting all you can out of your bike. To do anything less would be stupid and a waste of money for a racer (which is what we're talking about right now..not just a recreational rider).

@divinexbrutality to me theres alot more to riding than just optimising my power, i actualy enjoy riding my bike, i do it fast and everyday, i still stretch after a hard ride though, comes in handy

[divinexbrutality]

@ideasoner It's not about just optimizing your power for power's sake. This puts you in the most comfortable position so you enjoy it more. Also you're getting the most out of the bike by doing the same amount of work..who doesn't want that...on any level?
