Whenever I've had to ride with a saddle that won't go high enough, the pain in my knees has disagreed with that, in less than 10km; if you make a habit of it, there's no time to recover. I've got a medium frame runabout, and normally ride XL. A slightly longer seatpost and a very thick sprung saddle from the junk box make it just about big enough, though I don't have to take it up hills very often, and stand up if I do or for sprints | |
