At about 4 years into my SG, it seems that my slouch has "improved." I find that I'm looking through my windshield rather than over.
Trying to determine if I am too relaxed or developing bad posture habits while riding.
Using an LRS recurve that I measured using their tip-of-the-nose to a level method. I recall that I had to figure out my riding posture back then (was still sitting very tall). Seem to work well for those couple three years. Now not so much.
Anyone else experience this particular issue?
Over the 20+ years I ran a windshield on my '94 FLSTN I noticed the same thing. Part was the saddle settling, and part was the fact that I've lost over an inch in height in the last 20 years.
I solved the problem by buying a different bike and installing a taller saddle.
