It's safe to say I wish I had gotten a bike fit years ago as I've basically been suffering for three years with a poor position. Onwards and upwards now that I'm in a good position!!

I am a former pro rider and i can tell that your new position is so much better. Your upper body still moves a lot though (bouncing in the saddle), which is most likely due to your pedalling technique (pushing rather than spinning). Your shoulders move side to side, too, and this could be improved as well. Aim for a completely static yet relaxed upper body. Cheers!

Thanks for this, very helpful. Didn't even realize saddle position (meaning forwards/backwards, not height) was adjustable. This adjustment made a huge improvement.
-
12mm drop in saddle height is absolutely massive, not a small change. that kind of drop is a whole different ride position paradigm.
-
One of the best bike fit videos I’ve seen - well done mate. Some good tips and very clear explanation (and clips/graphics of what difference the changes made). Thanks for sharing it.
-
Great video. Thanks for sharing your journey. I loved my bike fit, especially when it came to shoes and wedges. I look forward to that video. Ride on.

Riding my TREK Discovery for 20 years with pain was almost alleviated with adjustments all during a recent ride. Tiny adjustments and more power.......made these problems almost disappear. Seat forward, lower, tilt,...fantastic....
-
Definitely the best explanation I've seen. Sure makes me want to get fitted for my bike(s). I know I'm off on a lot of settings.
-
Great video - very informative with plenty of useful tips!
-
Awesome ! I didn’t know what I didn’t know. I have a professional bike fitting coming up in 3 weeks. A little late in the year but I’m excited to have a pro help me ride further with less discomfort .
-
I don't know anything about bike fit, but your great editing and clear explanation made this video absolutely enjoyable, nice work!
-
Thank you..I have learned some new things which have made a difference for me
-
Brilliant editing and overall great video and well documented bike fit process. Well done!
-
Super useful to see. The after shot looks so much more natural. I finally scheduled a bike fit myself in a couple weeks.
-
You look so much more comfortable in the after shot. It even looks like power is easier to output
-
Another very informative video Jourdain. Its got me thinking about bike fit again. Thank you.
-
It's amazing to me that what seems like very small adjustments make so much difference in comfort. Thanks for posting the video. I'm going to get a pro bike fit!
-
Great vid mate, been thinking about changing my stem, going to look into a fitting now, cheers for putting this out there.
-
Viewed this again - and again to understand the process. Very detailed information and very useful. Thanks Too high and you rock from side-to-side. Too low and your knees will incur injury.

Thanks for sharing your bike fit journey! I actually found your channel from your Saris trainer review but digging the rest of your content. So, I've watched a lot of bike fit videos and enjoy tweaking my fit (Neill Sanbury, Francis/James Bike Fit Tuesdays). Recently did an online computerized (MyVeloFit) one due to cost, but will save up for a proper in-person bike fit before the next season.
