Adjust the Height of a Saddle

There are several methods to adjust the height of a saddle because they were developed for different riders. However, it isn't known which the most efficient method of the safe-oriented methods is. As is the works of Hidetoshi Hoshikawa (2003), if saddle is too low, a thigh tibia tends to be more burdened to a pedal, although a rider pedals at the same speed. In this study, I will make a model of the action between legs and pedals and examine which proportion of the saddle height to the length of legs is best.It is known that the height of the saddle is appropriate when the There are two different example of the method to adjust the saddle. BRIDGESTONE CYCLE CO., LTD shows in its web site (1) that the height of saddle is appropriate when a rider can barely touch the ground with his or her toe, inclining the bicycle slightly. Hiroshi Tamura, the editor of the magazine for cyclists, explains that the height is best when a rider can touch the ground stably with the rider's toe.
