Tom, read your review - have a question.
A high hamstring issue is causing a sore sit bone and is forcing me out onto the nose of my tri-bike’s saddle, a position I’m having to adjust to. Do you have an opinion on how the Arione is for that position?
Thanks!
Tom is in Nice, but I ride on the nose of my Arione with a QR Mr. Flitie. It’s perfectly comfortable for me.
i was able to ride fairly comfortably on the nose during the flatter sections of IMLP for long stretches of time. make sure to sit slightly off-center, so that your weight is being supported by your inner thigh/butt, and not by the body regions not meant to support your weight. it’ll probably work a little easier if you tilt the seat alignment slightly to one side, and i guess away from the side you’re having the sit bone issue.
There’s always someone to find the same trick as you:-) I was having slight hamstring soreness so did the angled sadle trick and hey presto no more problems.
