If you are slightly bent over (60°), an intermediate saddle will be an excellent compromise between comfort and performance for regular rides.Finally, for a sporty position (30°), a thin saddle with a narrow nose is the solution to reduce pressure and improve your performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCHOOSING YOUR SADDLE WIDTH\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe width of the saddle directly affects comfort.Our studies with Decathlon SportsLab have identified two key sizes:\n\n145 mm: for sit bones measuring 90 to 120 mm\n155 mm:for sit bones measuring 120 to 140 mm\n\nFor a more upright posture, 155 mm remains the best option, even for sit bones measuring less than 120 mm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTO MAKE THE MOST OF YOUR BIKE RIDE:\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor enjoyable, pain-free rides, it's crucial to adjust your saddle correctly.Start by choosing a saddle that suits your posture, for example a model designed for a 60° back angle.\nAdjust the height so that your leg extends naturally without your pelvis moving.Adjust the tilt for good support, with a neutral position often being ideal.\nFinally, adjust the saddle forward or backward to align your knees with the pedals, which will optimise your pedalling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e1. Determining the saddle height (part 1):\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor a perfectly adjusted bike, measure your inseam length.You will need a hardcover book, a tape measure and a pencil.\nStand with your back against a wall, barefoot and with your feet 15-20 cm apart.Place the book between your legs, move it up to your perineum and mark the wall above the book.\nMeasure the distance between this mark and the floor.This measurement is essential for choosing the ideal frame size, ensuring your comfort and safety.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e1.

Adjusting the saddle angle:\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eA good adjustment is also a properly angled saddle.\nPlace a spirit level on the front of the saddle.\nAdjust it so that it is completely flat.\nAfter a few rides, make slight adjustments according to how it feels.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e3.
