Trouble Standing - I’m a newbie

[TrapMeSuf]

Hi @glosada , and welcome to the forum!

I think this is one of those things that requires a bit of practise. When you pedal with very low resistance in level mode, can you come out of the saddle? When you do that, can you control your cadence?

Have a look at the GCN video, it may help:

There’s a GCN video on this topic. It’s pretty good. GCN - how to ride out of the saddle The key is to be able to stand on the pedals and control your cadence by keeping pressure on the foot that’s going up, so not put all your weight on the downward pedal.
