The other source for positioning in the aero tuck is "Zinn & the Art of Triathalon Bikes" by Lennard Zinn. See Chapter 3 (pg. 41 to 71). On a motorcycle there is the seat height and the handle bar position to modify. A 7/8" diameter tube fits both a motorcycle and a bicycle so there some variety. Note both Craig Vetter and Alan Smith made changes to their handle bar geometry. |
Thanks for the link.
Yup, if i made any adjustments, it would be to raise the bars a good 4-6 inches so that I am sitting more upright and comfortable.
