Do you want to keep riding that slack angle and use the road position with aero-bars? Because if you do, then you’re fine, there isn’t much point on going lower since you’ll be closing your hip angle too much. Now if you want to get into a more agressive “triathlon” position, there are a bunch of things you need to do, probably starting with a new frame…
Hi Leng,
It’s looks to me fairly close to the “slam” position that John Cobb talks about. I got your knee at about 145 degrees which means your seat is lowered a bit and I assume slide back as Cobb describes it. My wife rides her road bike this same way with the seat back and lowered slightly and is just as fast slammed as she is steep on her P2K. We’ve tested it numerous times and her running is the same ether way. So the slam works great for some people. I think your position is probably about right. You can compare yourself to the fella on this picture on the slam article.
Hi Cerveloguy,
Tks for the comments…
I just found a protractor to measure on the screen… Because it isn´t 360 degrees we need to know the basics of trigonometry…
