Hi All
Been getting out on the MTB and got my Road time down to 23km/h but am wondering if i am sitting in the optimum position. I have found lot of info about position for road bikes and wondering if the same rules applies to MTB as well.
Any advice greatly appreciated.

I am still working on the heather to let me get a road bike. so until them I am still stuck with my MTB.
Not to sure what DH and XC mean conehead as I am new to all of this.
You can get MTB tyres that are more suited for road use, they have parallel tread down the centreline. That'll give you another couple of kph. I used to be able to average 28-29kph on my mtb with those on.
1. Step off MTB
2. Walk to bike shop
3. Buy road bike
4. Remount
5. Peddle like f**k
you should be 10kph faster
XC - Cross country
DH - Downhill
