Although I was convinced that I has set myself up correctly, I rechecked and I was wrong. My saddle was back too far by around 4 cm.

I had thought that the knee pain I had was due to old age and arthritis, but - it's gone...

Thanks for a really informative and clear video. My knees send their regards.

By far the best video I've seen relating to fitting a bike. Other videos from other bike shops, they simply talk and not actually show how it's measured (probably because they're afraid of losing business in the bike-fitting area). My local bike shop charges $60 to do these measurements & bike-fittings.

Well a day without learning, brilliant tutorials on how to make sure your bike is correctly fitted for you. My husband has a back problem and this has helped us to understand the correct way to adjust his bike to fit him.

Thank you for taking the time to make your recording.

I must say I'm impressed. I'm noob, so didn't expect that people put so much thought into this kind of stuff. Thank you for such a useful video!

Finally this was the video I was looking for. So many other bike fitting videos try to make this process seem so much more complicated.

I am 6 foot with a long torso & shorter legs. I had a 56cm road bike that was fitted for me at one bike shop but sold after a couple of months. Not comfortable after 10 miles of riding. I was told at another shop to get a 58cm but i had seat at lowest setting. My last bike was a woman's large that worked well but did not like colors. I now have a M-L Giant road bike that fits me perfectly!

Wow what a kind and helpful man with a great respectful manner. You'd think the comments would reciprocate this to at least some extent.... He sized her based on what SHE wears when SHE rides the bike. So he did the job properly for the customer. IMO, great video, with some really useful information that can be applied in anyone's use case no matter what does they choose to wear.

Find this facinating!! Especially as having just bourght a bike from evans i didnt get any of this! In fact i was told when i asked if my crutch should be touching the top tube? The answer was that shouldny matter, when i get off the bike i should just make sure i tilt the bike to the side!!!!

I literally could not wait to read the comments while watching this video, and they did not let me down XD

[DreadinNY]

[JD-goqj]

I was under the impression that the front axle/reach check was done with the hands in the drops? Evans... you need to clarify this.

[ALEXPEAK]

if i'm being honest, I could not shake the feeling that this video was going to turn into a very specific genre of porn.

[eddiesierra]

That's what I like straight to the point video... Nice!
