Gordo rides a Trek TTT bike - large with a seat tube angle of 73.7 (per Trek's website). He rides with the seat about 2cm forward of neutral and he says the tip of his saddle is in front of his BB. I assume its not too far in front....I don't know the type of saddle. I also don't know how tall he is - ? maybe 5'11?
We don't have any exact numbers but we should be able to estimate his angle fairly closely if we assume its an average saddle, the tip is just above the BB, and we know his height. Should be easy for the mathematically inclined who know how long the average saddle is and how long his BB to seat measurement roughly is given his height.
Just curious - thought it would be interesting to see what angle he rides given how well he runs off the bike....
Thanks
