I've decided I need to lower my bike. I recently got a Russell Day Long which has caused me to be on my tiptoes when both feet are on the ground. I'm OK at a light when I lean the bike over and put down my left foot. I have a 29" inseam. The seat is incredible and I don't want to give up that comfort. I'm finishing an 8,000 mile trip across US and have never had issues with my butt or back. No need to ever stop between tanks of fuel. Unfortunately, I have dropped the bike twice on the right side. Both were unusual circumstances but I believe they could have been avoided if my right foot was more firmly on the ground. Russell will modify the front of the seat to lower seat height but at a potential loss in comfort. Before the RDL, I had a low seat on the high bracket position. I know I can also look into elevated shoes.
I would like to retain ESA functionality. My research shows Works or Beemershop is the way to go.
Will anyone with first hand experience doing this share their results/thoughts?
