Re: WHOA! Andy Potts was on Gatorskins and Butyl tubes last year in Kona!!! [DarkSpeedWorks]

I don't have near your fitting experience, but I have a little. And your photos are not visible anymore, but even in those shots his seat looked a bit high. Not as high as in the tririg pic, but still high. I am assuming that you used retul to measure Potts' fit, is that correct? If yes, I have seen this trend before, but do you ever find that retul measured fits tend to set riders' seat a bit too high? Or not?.



I use my eye to guide Andy's fit. I use the retul to put a metric to what I see, but if the retul does not confirm what my eye sees, my eye wins. I came up with most of the retul measurements for TT fitting and if they aren't setting saddle heights appropriately, then there is something wrong with the marker placement or the machine.

Hopefully, these pics work...

I've been working with Potts since 2009 and have gradually worked to raise his saddle. I don't think it's too high, but it looked high to me in that TriRig pic...that is not the same bike that I setup.
