Lately, I've been wanting to get into some off-road triathlons. Main barrier so far was the lack of MTB. I have been offered by a relative to indefinitely borrow his bike since he doesn't use it anymore. The problem is that the bike is small for my size. I can ride it and I've been doing so without discomfort for around a week, but the handlebars are too close to the saddle. Do you have some ideas that I could use to try to fit myself to the bike?
So far I think I'll replace the stem with a longer one (maybe the longest I can find) and I'm also considering buying a handlebar with the sides higher than the center (I've had to put the saddle quite high so now handlebars are a bit too low).
Thanks,
