If you go to a skate park or street spot now a days it's going to be very common to seal
a lot of kids who have there seats as low as they can possibly have them on there bikes.
That a very common thing cause as weight a lot of people have been noting that the amount
of extra room that you have when doing certain tricks is vastly increased by having your
seat lower. At the same time if you have your seat up a little higher it makes it a little
bit easier for you to pinch the seat with your knees when your doing no handed tricks
for example, bar spins being a very common one. Again if your going to be pedaling around
and having a seat that's a little bit higher is going to be a little bit more comfortable
because you'll be able to pedal sitting down to where as if your seated is all the way
down it's just not going to be very comfortable at all for pedaling around. For me personally
my seat height isn't exactly optimal for getting around anywhere but also gives me a proper
height for doing bar spins and also for certain trick like turn downs. Having this extra clearance
here to get my leg through really is a benefit to me because it allows me more room when
doing turn downs. And so this is seat height that I sort of chosen at this point at the
same time it there's a great deal with experimentation that you can do, some people prefer to have
there seats up here for personal reasons, other people like I said they like to have
them all the way down. And there's really no solid answer as to the correct seat height
is for you so much like handlebars you should really experiment with it and find the set
up that works out best for you.
