The current recommendation seems to be to only setup a bike steep if doing a very level bike race. I’m doing IMC and Alcatraz this year so, in theory, should be riding a road geometry bike due to the hills but have no plans to replace my Saber.
My seat post has a huge range of adjustment so can be moved back to give me a shallow seat post angle. Should I try setting the bike up less steep (flip the seat post and put on a shorter stem to keep the cockpit length the same) or would I have handling concerns due to the centre of gravity being too far back?
