 Re: Bikester
Where are your knees hitting on the bars? To help solve that you can turn them out and over the front tire a little bit- IF the bike is comfortable except for the knees in the handle bars turning them a bit might make the bike comfortable.
It looks like you should be able to do that from the pictures on your blog...
You might try looking for a bmx frame from DK, Haro, or mongoose. They make long low BMX frames. Their frames are used by older people when doing BMX racing, so you should be able to ride them without banging your knees- frames can be pretty cheap and I see them all the time on clist. But often you get just the frame, 'cause the person selling it thrashed the rest.
For the seat slipping, Try making a shim out of a soda or beer can- a little strip, an inch wide and 2 inches long should stop that slipping. |
