    Hey all

    Have recently changed my cracks arms.

    Previously had 170mm but now have 172.5mm. How do i adjust my saddle?

    Do I just match the Pedal to saddle on old set up and do the same on the new set up?

    These are very small differences, but if your saddle was perfectly set up previously, I would have thought that you should drop your saddle 2.5mm. That way you avoid rocking your hips or straining your knee at the bottom of your pedal stroke.
