I don't think the saddle is too high, however being a newbie maybe it is. I can sit on the saddle, and balance myself on my tippy toes. I had the LBS guy check it out, and he seemed to think it was ok. Last night I was looking at posts about trainers, and realized that when I was fitted for my bike the bike was on a trainer and the front wheel was elevated with some type of plastic block. Now I'm wondering if that would of affected the fit? I had them add a stem riser because I kept feeling like I was falling forward, the stem riser fixed that problem but.....other "roadies" often comment or do a double take when they notice, so im starting to think most cyclist dont put stem risers on there road bike.
Considering I had next to nil core strength when I started out, the stem riser helped with a more upright position. But I still wonder if that plastic block affected the whole fit issue. To get a bike fitted is it usually done only on a trainer?
I have a spin bike and at 90 rpm I don't bounce, so there must be something off with the fit? Or is this bouncing caused by being inexperienced? Or both?

It's definatley bouncing....up and down.....no side to side movement
