Tip: Horizontal position of the saddle
The fore / aft adjustment (horizontal saddle position) is the distance of the tip of
the nose of the saddle in relation to the bottom bracket axle (Fig. A). Usually this
is behind the bottom bracket axle - around 5 cm. The taller the person is, the
further behind this line the tip of the saddle will be - up to 10 cm. For a shorter
rider this distance may be reduced to 0 - 1 cm.
