    I tried a Ridgeback Rapide Velocity today from The Bike Shed here in
    Cardiff. It's so quiet! It felt very nice, after my ancient Raleigh
    Pioneer Classic. The saddle was one thing I didn't much enjoy - the
    riding position meant that my delicate parts were somewhat mashed up by
    the front of the seat............

    Yep, different strokes for different folks, sheldon covers the subject
    IIRC.

    Ah yes, saddles, I remember them.....

    Incidentally, the other thing I found unusual about the bike was that
    the cranks felt much shorter - is this something simply to get used to,
    or do people with different legs and bodies do better with different
    length cranks?


    Yes they do. My little legs go much better with the short cranks on my
    tourer than the standard ones on my everyday old MTB with slicks. When the
    MTB goes to bike heaven I shall be trying to do a deal to get short cranks
    on a hybrid.

    Save up the pennies and get a good chainset of the right size. Then
    move it from bike to bike as you change bikes.


    Got one, it's on the tourer. I'm not paying a fortune for bits on the MTB
    that I don't ride more than 10 miles on, and leave locked up all over
    various bits of Manchester. Too high a likelihood of it being nicked one
    day.

    I have a TA Carmina (was supposed to get a Vega but the shop made a
    mistake) which is very nice, completely modular and comes in short
    sizes (as short as 150mm).


    I've got 150mm on the tourer, and they are a great match for my short legs.
