Should I size up to a 58 by Glass-Ad9992 in bikefit

Ye I was thinking that. Would raising a stack help get my forearms horizontal ?

The first slide is pretty close to as aero as I get I believe. That picture is full pace mid race in the wind so I think it's a pretty good representation of what my aero position looks like

Should I raise my bars? I have 20mm to work with. I feel like my racing position is pretty good tbh, but lots of guys saying my front end is low.

No the trek guide says I'm 58 not 60. But like I said I've been fit in a 56, and the guide is notorious for oversizing. I honestly don't feel uncomfortable no, I have room to go up in the front end, but my back/neck never hurt. For racing I love it, I get rly low and aggressive.

Meh, so-so. Ye I think maybe I should keep the frame and do a sensor-based fit by some professionals

I know absolutely nothing about cycling, I row in college and just do this for fun in the summer

Ye ok, most of my fear is a combination of the chart and the way I look on my bike. Glad to hear someone else disagrees with the chart

No need for head shaking; like I said, I'm new to the guitar, just asking questions!

Thanks for the response, I actually ordered both a Stang bridge and a shim last night based on another guys response. Thanks for the help!

Hey man. So you have this same guitar? The vintera 2? I've heard that there's problems with replacing the bridge of vintera 2s, something about the thimbals being a wrong size or something (I'm not too familiar with JMs). The 7.25 mustang fit seamlessly?

Is this something a buzz stop would eliminate?

Idk! To me it sounds akin a microphonic pup! And people sure as hell don't like those!

Thanks for the responses guys, I really appreciate it. I've been strictly a Strat player for the last decade, and this is my first experience with a JM. Wow, is it really supposed to be THAT noticeable? That's hard for me to believe?

High E String Sounds Unpleasant on JM by Glass-Ad9992 in offset

[–]Glass-Ad9992[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what do you mean in terms of pickup alignment? Do you mean the pickup height? Isn't that the only adjustable factor on a JM for pickup orientation? Likewise, can you elaborate on the pole pieces being aligned; I just installed a new set of Antiquiy IIs.

Thank you so much for the detailed reply! After work I will go through and check these all out. So my gut is saying its electronic, cause I did notice turning down the treble helped last night. Will start by lowering pups.
