Lowering the seat height

[LA96]

im' envious that crimson has a 30" inseam...mine is 27.5" which sucks

I just bought a used 1098 height adjuster. I can just barely get the balls of my feet on the ground comfortably. I plan on only lowering the seat the slightest bit to simply feel more confident when putting my feet down in traffic, especially on right hand turn stops and dips out of gas stations etc. I am also going to readjust my rear shock what I need to keep my current sag setup.

I do the stand on left leg, roll over to right to put bike into gear, jump back on left leg. It is so annoying but i'm just working with what God gave me.

That does totally suck! Good luck but as mentioned don't go too far as the suspension won't like it at all from what I've read.

I'm 5'8" (don't know my inseam, but I'm skinny) and flatfoot 1098 no problem..you'll be fine with it stock I think...?

I'm looking at raising mine actually. Keep reading about the rediculous truly measured trail that this bike has so if I go with a full suspension kit inc a rear linkage it will raise the seat height 1". I dont really ride in traffic. I only ride Sundays on twisty roads. I avoid people, cops, & traffic lights.
