Got a proper bike fit early spring, swapped a few saddles and made a few adjustments before landing in my current position. Feel pretty good in this position and have raced my Oly and 0.3 in the same position shown. That said, I do have some slight annoying discomfort in my lower right back after longer periods in the aero position (I do not believe these to be related to my back issues from years ago).
Anything you see here that is either:
1. Potentially yielding said back issues (e.g., wide aerobar setup has me a bit hunched over - could dropping the bars and bringing the pads in be a solution?)
2. Could be improved in general (longer reach, lower stack, more forward position, higher/lower seat, etc.).
I can post my initial stack and reach measurements, but they may not be the best indicator as I have since lost considerable weight and have lowered my bars to the "new normal" level (but I'm obviously open to trying new positions - just don't want to waste time trying a bunch of things that won't be beneficial).
Also - you will note I moved positions a bit (more forward - more neutral); I welcome thoughts on both.
