Hello,
1. It is not noticeable as long as the saddle position can be obtained. It is
one ingredient in bike fit.
2. In my case, I like a fair bit of setback, and Br
I compensate for the slackened STA of my Hillborne with a zero setback
seatpost.
Your figures correlate with mine Approx 6mm difference for each half degree
of setback, if I remember correctly.
As to whether the relaxed geometry is a positive or a negative, I don't think
of it that way .
