@ ciquta...your saddle height is a function of your inseam...roughly. If you have large feet then that could add a little to saddle height but it depends on your philosophy regarding pedal stroke and ankle position. Thinking used to be more into ankle extension...these days riders are moving more toward a flexed ankle pedal position. This minimizes your calf muscles and emphasizes your hamstrings and quads (larger muscle groups)
But...If you have long femurs relative to your lower leg...then you will need to move your saddle position rearward to maintain the optimum position of your leg on the power stroke. This is the Plumb Bob method in action.
Long femurs would bring your knee out front of the pedal axle. The thinking is that your knee should be roughly equal with the pedal axle. (this is just one way of thinking).
That philosophy will dictate that you move your saddle back either using the rails... a setback post of decreasing (slackening) the angle of the seat tube. For our purposes...make the changes in the frame and not with components.
If you move the seat tube rearward and keep your top tube the same then that is going to decrease your front center measurement. So now your h-bar position is closer to the BB.
My point here is that you need to solve the issue of your saddle position in relation to your BB first...Then you can begin figuring out the rest of the equasion.
