The cyclist is not leaning forward at all, so the raised part does not press into anything. Give it a try.<br /><br />I also want to point out that my earlier comment about the size of the frame was incorrect: This is a 22.5" frame. This bike has a very high bottom bracket, so when in doubt go with a smaller size.Velouriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00359329171411037482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6467858377106451384.post-88543557416777016982011-03-16T13:24:00.028-04:002011-03-16T13:24:00.028-04:00Don't know if you plan to have children but mi...Don't know if you plan to have children but might want to suggest to the co-habitant that he lower the nose of the seat if that is a desired outcome.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6467858377106451384.post-53124310461781284662010-12-03T13:08:12.347-05:002010-12-03T13:08:12.347-05:00HI there - I have just fitted the same leather gri...HI there - I have just fitted the same leather grips - your hubbies look really smooth and worn in - is that natural wear or did he treat them in some way?<br /><br />Picture of mine fresh on here<br /><br />http://pashleyguide.blogspot.com/2010/12/pashley-roadster-sovereign-full-review.html<br /><br />BazBarry Mazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15731777711884288947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6467858377106451384.post-24815012219677055702010-02-18T14:02:44.622-05:002010-02-18T14:02:44.622-05:00Just bought a Roadster Sovereign.

It will be really nice to ride matching bicycles with the husband, too : ) <br /><br />I saw on your blog that you were considering the Pashley Princess, but went with the Azor because it was larger. I wonder which Princess frame you tried (they come in 3 sizes). My reason for choosing it was that it was actually <I>roomier</I> than the equivalent size Gazelle frame.Velouriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00359329171411037482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6467858377106451384.post-43341394284174244572009-05-28T03:37:19.150-04:002009-05-28T03:37:19.150-04:00Niiiiiice bike!
