Every cyclist has something that can be improved. Improvement in some things is easier than others.

		<description><![CDATA[When I am helping people find their perfect position on the bicycle, saddle height is one of the many dimensions we discover in a BalancePoint™ session. While people consider the knee joint as the only significant articulation, the ankle is in fact an articulation as well. This makes a single joint movement a compound movement, [...]<p>Post from: <a href="http://blog.kgsbikes.com">KGS Bikes Custom Bicycles</a><br/><br/><a href="http://blog.kgsbikes.com/what-does-your-ankle-have-to-do-with-saddle-height/">What does your ankle have to do with saddle height?</a></p>

		<description><![CDATA[I was on a ride this weekend and a friend was introducing me and stumbled when describing what I do for a living. I realized that I need to improve the definition of what goes on at KGS Bikes. I figure if I heard this confusion once, it happens a lot behind my back!

I incorrectly stated the weights of the Topolino VX4.0 wheels and wanted to correct this by sharing an email from Geoffrey Falkner at Topolino: Kevin, thanks for the support and testimonial.

Dan Empfield of slowtwitch.com writes in his article, F.I.S.T. Axioms, 1) Most pro triathletes ride alike, 2) Fit and trim age group triathletes can easily adopt the same positions ridden by the pros, 3) Bodies are smart [...]<p>Post from: <a href="http://blog.kgsbikes.com">KGS Bikes Custom Bicycles</a><br/><br/><a href="http://blog.kgsbikes.com/power-trumps-aero-to-a-point-good-news-for-triathletes-and-time-trialists/">Power Trumps Aero, to a point &#8211; Good news for triathletes and time trialists</a></p>

Many carbon seatposts are on the market and some are incredibly light. The function of the seatpost is to locate the saddle in the right place for your body.

The two reasons to have great sprinting speed are to confidently pass a competitor and to make the best time through rolling hills.
