How do I set up the fenders and stirrups for my new saddle.... I normally touch the stirrup bar and pull the stirrup into my under arm ??? would I do this with the Barefoot and fenders or would you aim to ride a hole or so longer ???
I set my fenders to the length I would with english leathers, but I do ride with a longish leg anyway, if you feel like to ride short-ish with english leathers then a hole or two down would probably be better, but mostly go for whatever is comfortable.

No question is ever silly.
Whatever is comfortable for you and the saddle will need time to mould and you might want to adjust later on.
I have just gone up one hole on my gp.
I found with my DT I need to be a hole shorter than normal (which is very long) to be properly balanced, it took me a while fildding about with it and riding in it to figure it out and get comfortable with it
