That's right, three in the top bit and five in the lower part to give more combinations of position.

The lower part is fixed and you are limited on the travel of the pedal because of the front upper rail.

You have to be careful with the brake adjustment and make sure you leave enough room for any slack that might occur so as not to end up with the pedal hitting the rail and causing brake loss.

Moving the seat back will cause an imbalance in the weight distribution and will affect the handling.

The Tillet T9 seat may help as it has a 58 degree rake and allows the shoulders to lay further back.

Josh Collins was about 6ft 3 in and pedalled a CRG around a track ok.

Other than an extended steering boss, I can't think of any other way to find some room.

Your forum name is TKM Racer, didn't Jade do a chassis that accommodated taller drivers?

Just how tall are you?
