Team,
Personally, I don't see how anyone can stand on a road bike and climb.
I've tried that maybe twice and it was like walking a tight
rope...seriously. The bike wanted to tip over. This forces me to
remain seated while climbing and accelerating.
So, instead I just push my butt to the back of the seat and put my tree
trunk legs into "crank
mode". Like having an extra gear without the gear change. Anyone else
do this?
Which is more advisable? Standing or sitting? How can one correct the
standing/tipping issue?
