“These sunglasses don’t fit”
James: “Try lowering the saddle”
LMFAO
Best Video James has ever done with you Lawrence. Very informative and practical.
i agree!
I have a feeling there is more to come then! A follow up for sure - SlavetodaBOX 😝
I always enjoy listening to James.

James: People run their saddles too high!
This comment wins the day
Love seeing James so passionate about his work
Could watch/listen to James all day long, the guy is just full of so much knowledge... great vlog well done 🙌
Really interesting that someone like yourself that obviously knows his position so well and rides so often can still get adjustments that have positive effects, great vid.
Lawrence.. a kind soul, nice guy, and classy person. Dont stop.
Really good info. Nice to hear someone who genuinely knows what they are talking about while still putting a limit on what they feel qualified to do. Really cool video, thanks
Everybody deserves a James...but James doesn't deserve everybody
Loved the info James gave on your shoe improvement And comfort
Good stuff as usual. How about a video on junior racing? Rules, gearing etc. My boy has just started and we can’t find any good RUclips videos on this subject.
Would love to know how to know if a cycling shoe fits properly for starters. James is obviously very knowledgeable. Thanks
Quality video again Lawrence.
Actually reminded me of something that is called ...Tuesday but that never happens on a Tuesday 😁
Great content. James is just a wealth of information. I would love a bike fit with him .
I do love the way James talks about bike fitting, great video
Good video, more content like this is always good. James's knowledge and the honest way he shares it is refreshing.
Nice and easy setup
been watching alot of bikefit james recently, his bikefit knowledge is another level! Any chance you can get him to do a saddle height video, as hes always banging on about it! And most of us are running our saddles too high!
Excellent Lawrence, James know his stuff👍👍
James rocks. So much knowledge...
Loved this video, James knows his stuff. I have problems with my shoes as well. but they are old. I am buying Sidi Genius 10. Looking forward to getting a proper fit. hopefully i can find someone here in Wisconsin. Thank you so much for this well done Video. you have won a new Subscriber.
Content like this makes a pleasant change and is really informative from James who is a total encyclopaedia of incredible information 😁
Just catching up Lawrence. I think James is the boss. Absolutely love hearing him talk about the nuances of bike fit, show fit and the overall customization of achieving a comfortable ride. Thanks so much for the video. Well don my friend.
Hey Jim! Cheers for watching and commenting. Glad you enjoyed the video 🤙🏼
James is cool and knowledgeable, nice video all the best for the session m8.
That he is, thanks Simon for watching and commenting!
Loving these episodes. James is a bit of a Dude and certainly seems to know his stuff. It’s been great seeing the bike fit with Sav and now these , shoe/clip fitting videos. I’ve been riding a mountain bike for a while but have just ordered a new gravel bike and I’m going for my bike and shoe fit this week. Thanks for the great content.
Great video as always Lawrence, i would love to see you get a full fit with James. 🤙
Good stuff. In the market to drop $400 on new shoes so this was good to watch. Look forward to more on bike fits w James.
Great video! James has great info! Thanks to you, James and Francis I know a lot more what to look at with bike fitting! Keep on racing Lawrence!!
Yes great content. More please Lawrence !
Just watched this. I really struggle with numb tingly feet while riding which totally puts me off riding my road bike and have ignored the problem for to long. Time to try and get it sorted.
James has explained this is Francis Cade's bike fit Tuesday video's. He says that it's a result of cleats to far forward on the shoe. And saddle height slightly too high. Lower saddle about 10mm and move cleats back on the shoe about 20mm.
To my knowledge. I'm no bike fitter like James but I believe he mentioned that very topic
James shoe fit is spot on ,just one more great video. Keep this type of videos coming.
Good information/insights. Helpful.
If I didn't see the his face and the inside of room, I'd swear James was a different person to what I see in bike fit Tuesday videos. Totally different persona.
Those foot beds look quite nice, I am experiencing something similar, I bought a Sidis Shot 2 but I haven't managed to find the right cleat position and I don't feel comfy, on the other hand, I have a 10 years old Sidi ergo 2 and I feel in heaven with them, so disappointing.
I am in the process of buying new Sidi shoes in two days. Owner of Ergo 2 which fits me superb. Can do 14 hours ride without any problems.
Now I am surfing in between Wire 2 and Shot 2. A bit worried not to get same perfect shies as Ergo 2 are.
@@miivii 14 hours ride with whatever you use will always be exhausting.
Before I watched, I had a little-sneaky-suspicion the G8's would make an appearance!!!
More knowledge bombs being dropped by James. Look forward to seeing your complete bike fit being done.
Well done to all!
Best vid yet, well done
A lot of great shoe info, thanks !
I really liked this video, I'd like to see more content like this. I was interested in his ideas about running saddles too high, I just dropped mine dramaticallyin a bike fit.
James ends up slipping me info it'd take ten years hear , thanks James and thanks YT for changing the learning curve timeline
Hey Lawrence, to fix the flickering issue, just change your camera’s shutter speed. If you shoot auto, put it in shutter priority mode (tv) and select the shutter speed that stops the flickering. If you are shooting 25p, you typically will be shooting 1/50th of a second on your shutter for most natural motion blur. You’ll just need to dial it faster or slower to fix the flicker. Just don’t go too far in either direction, otherwise your motion blur will be too much or not enough. :)
It is flickering because your shutter speed is syncing with the lights, just change it up or down a click, it should disappear. (Common problem)
Great video!
That was really interesting, the guy knows his stuff. As someone who’s struggling to get his feet comfortable on the bike I wish he was local to me.
Very nice video Lawrence
Great video, lot of good informations
Hi Lawrence, yes enjoyed the video and would love to see more of this sort of stuff also more info about your Wiggins race programme / plans for this season? Love your little cycling clan - makes me wish I was 20 years younger and a bit closer to Kingston and Richmond.
Superb Lawrence, James is extremely knowledgeable & those G8's will be in my Fizik R1's (yes I know James, expensive lesson learned) in the next couple of weeks I think.
Interesting stuff and I'm fascinated that somebody that that cycles at your level can still find improvements 👍
Great video 👍
Helpful stuff
Good stuff
Never ever tell Lawrence that he can't pur-shoe his bicycling championship dreams
Really good content Lawrence... massive thumbs up
Thank you for the kind words Pete! Massively appreciated 😎
@@bbikerlawrence you and the people on your videos are doing an amazing job at promoting the sport in such a positive way!
Enjoyed the informative video. What strikes me odd is paying 200 pounds for a new pair of cycling shoes and then another 50 pounds for insoles. I would expect the new cycling shoes would be selected or fitted to accommodate for any anomaly’s.
I'm basically super jealous I don't have someone like James in Atlanta that I can go see. Definitely need his help and expertise
The bike fitting king. Cheers Jordan!
Yeah, sometimes it takes weeks to months to zero in on the correct position. You know you are on when after riding 100 klms you're not sore anywhere. I'm mean sure you feel that you HAVE used the muscles in your legs and rest of body but you are surprised at the fact that there are no pains anywhere. This is when you know your on the mark.
Super content more of this , and on why campag is better
More James is always better than less James.
James should chuck in some made up latin words for parts of the body - we'd still believe him :-)
@@webbo73 Yes, but I believe that our trust isn't misplaced even though he could easily get away with bullshit.
That was really interesting, thx!
GREAT ADVICE
Very interesting, thanks
Ahhh I need to have my shoes custom fit! I have really hi arches and I find I have my cleats as far forward as possible, and one side is angled much different than the other.
nice one!
Be interested to know why you only had problems with the new Sidi shoes & not your old Giro's Do the Giros come with better foot beds. And no mention of changing your pedals for more foot support either.
Cracking video 🚴♂️👍
A other good video Lawrence. It has got me thinking, I have some Sidi's and my right foot is widerr than my left so went for wider shoes, but don't feel right.
very nice video
Great interesting video. It would also be interesting to have a follow up in the future to see how much your fit issues have actually been addressed. No body ever seems to do a follow up video! Are they too dull or is the fit not as effective as first hoped?
Good stuff, coincidentally I started following James on IG recently.
Cheers Craig! Isn’t he just the best 🤟🏽
Had a dance instructor tell me I had two left feet...bet James could even fix that!! Great video 👍
Angus Troutman saddles to high
Paw James, had of dog of a job there, your foot was bent like a dogs hind leg, bit hairy there fo a while, but James with his skill clawed his way back to a solution! Lol!!!
I think there was space for a few more dog adjectives there 🙈
I used my ski custom race footbeds 8 years ago 😂
Any good ski boot fitter can make them
what I feel is if you don't go to a fitter like James. There is almost no point in watching these videos. There are lots of information with which you can not do anything. But I am still watching this.
I need to get my shoes sorted. After a back problem some years ago I ride with a shoe 2 sizes to big to stop my toes hurting.
Great content Lawrence, very informative and loved the editing! Would definitely like to see BFJames giving you a full fit!
This is almost ASMR...
Next video do James's loafers, moccasins, or what ever the heck those are :)
James. I went far back from a mid rear cleat position and feel more natural thanks
I have just got a pair of Lakes after my previous pair have seen better days. The previous shoes were fitted in 2013 and the shop was in an BMW/Mini dealership in North London but the chap was (pretty sure ) called James (Just checked and it was James Hewitt). Not sure if its same person but would appreciate having the new shoes fitted also. I checked the Richmond Bicycle website but no longer working. Not sure if he's doing fittings now. Anyone help please ?
Hi Kevin. Absolutely James would be happy to see you- the website is working >> www.bicyclerichmond.co.uk
This will probably never get seen but anyway. Viewer feedback: when someone is talking about/manipulating something tangible, show us the something. Took for ever for us to find out what the Australian thingies were or looked like. Earlier James was marking your new cleat position and talking about it but we couldn't see what he was doing. Also, missing from the video IMO is your verdict. Maybe it will come in a later video but it would kinda makes sense to end this one with an evaluation of the fit. Other than that great. A good shoe fit is hard to achieve so this helps a lot. Thanks.
I really need to see that guy, but my Polish salary doesn't suffice!! Interesting film Lawrence, thanks.
very informative, whats james' view on bont boat like carbon soles that are heat mouldable. Do bonts give the range of supports what fancy arch supports do with regular arch support?
What Sidi model was in the vid?
Wire 2 Carbon
Love this bike fitting stuff...did you find the g8 insole reduced the shoe volume significantly? It looks a lot thicker than the sidi it replaced....., Interested on how you
Get on with these insoles...
Have exactly the same problem with pain on the outside of my right foot, to the extent i cant put weight on it after a 25 mile ride. Do i need insoles?
How would James approach problems with 'flat foot' or collapsed arches? Also does he have anything to say about weak dorsiflexion in the ankle - how important is ankle flexibility when riding and can he offer any ways to combat poor flexibility?
I noticed you used a 3 - hole shoe for your speedplay. Does the Speedplay adapter add more stack height then if you d have a 4 hole sole ? Curious if a 4 hole speedplay specific sole would be less stack height and more backwards adjustment?
How would James fit someone with odd width fit. 118mm Left 110mm Right. Would going wide/extra wide to fit the left foot compromise the fit of the right foot and how would you hit a happy medium.
It would be interesting what he would recommend for me. I have one foot 6 1/2 and one 8 1/2 uk size lol.
Like the cool looking sidi shoes , how do they compare on weight to the giro empires? Own some sidi wire shoes, but was thinking buying a lighter brand next time?
Hey Kris! The sidi shoes are around 30% heavier and yeah it is perhaps noticeable but I don’t really mind. Giro if you are concerned for weight 🤟🏽
Awesome video!! Great info and content. More of the trio though. You were kissing someone!
🙌🏻
Why not let James do a full bike fit?
What's the name of the Australian inner soles Lawrence?? Great vid too👌
V.informative. As usual v.easy to spend £100s on kit without being informed of the why's and wherefore's
Great video - I'd love a full fit with James but the hassle to travel from northern Ireland makes it unfeasible. Is the retol fit usually good?
Only as good as the person looking at the data....I've seen alot of Retul fits that lift the saddle as high as possible and slam the stem...
Yeh I’d agree with Dean. It’s OK, it all depends on the fitter. Shame he’s a fair way away seems to be the theme for a lot of these global viewers!
@@bbikerlawrence definitely- he knows his stuff so we can all learn the tidbits we can pick up in the videos :) tbh I dont get any pain but I do get pins and needles in my hands
Is cotton better than Lycra?
