Bike size should mitigate that.
I do think there is some mileage in position. That’s why I was suggesting fit is an important factor. -
Actually would taller riders have a centre of gravity further forward than shorter riders? I guess it depends if you're taller because of long legs or long torso. But, if you have a long torso then presumably you have more weight forward which means you might get more hand issues rather than saddle issues?
Isn't this basically what bike fitting is to fix?
