I am currently moving my position for a UCI event. I am fairly short around 5ft7 and ride a Small Scott Plasma 3 with 90mm Flat stem. In order to get within the 75cm reach limit ÃŒ have to have my Pro missile evo’s at there shortest session and angle the sram r2c shifters downwards. Guessing some Medium sized bikes might struggle! My saddle is 5cm behind the bb so could probably go to 80cm with new rule change, but surprised how right at the shortest limit it is.
indeed. Take the 80cm exemption, and don’t be afraid to experiment with moving the saddle even farther back to open up a bit more reach.
The difference between my legal position and tri/open TT position is pretty crazy. So much easier to stretch out when you don’t have limits on the reach.
