why do I slide forward on my bicycle seat?
I Average riding 35-60 miles per trip. My adjustment for my knee / pedal alignment seems ok. No pain, discomfort, etc.. but I tend to slide forward in the saddle. I raised the nose of the saddle slightly and that seemed to help some. Do I need to move the saddle forward and if so would that cause knee pain?
Here is a YouTube video from a mild mannered tech with Performance Bikes who shows you the way to do it.
It sounds complicated and is not. Your bike fit is too critical to play with. Follow his plan and you will be off and riding comfortably.
He does a great job! IMHO.
