Brooks adjustment?

[skyhand]

hey elk — the nose is only tilted up a hair and i've gotta really look at it to notice — i sit farther back on the saddle, so contact with the nose anyway is minimal. with the nose level, the sit area was slanted upward too much and caused me to slide forward and put pressure on my hands / wrists. the way it is now, the sit isn't so severely slanted and everything feels great. i stay put, my hands / wrists have minimal, if any, pressure, and there's no pushin' on my bits. the whole adjustment was so minor too — it's crazy how the most minute tweak makes a world of difference! down to the freakin' millimeter. i was worried it'd put pressure on my soft stuff, but the result was instead exactly what i needed.

fwiw, my bike isn't a perfect fit for me, so these adjustments i do to make it all work the best i can 'til i get something custom. someday!
