I'm just watching some under 23 year olds racing, and one guy is way forward on his saddle. He has none of his body behind the centreline of the seat tube, and I am not sure how that could possibly be an optimally designed fit or comfort. This is at the national level of racing. Another great video of your kit.
It still gets me how there are people that say bike fitting is just an unnecessary gimmick. A piece of kit like this, with the right person behind the trigger, enables you to try out so many different options. Bicycles now have so much integrated kit it has to make sense to try before you buy. You only have to read the comments each week to see many people are loaded with questions and doubt about their own bikes. At one point I did think James was going to set sail down the High Street on that jig, it's an age thing....Monty Python an all that...young people ignore me.
I used to do visual bikefits , but that's all dried up because everyone wants and expects tech/video capture etc which is fair enough and understandable. We just stick to used bikes maintenance now.
It would be interesting to know if people's average levels of satisfaction with the results of their bike fits have increased over time. But it does stand to reason that better data would lead to more accuracy and better outcomes. That said, I'd have thought there'd still be a market for lower tech bike fitting at a lower price, not everyone needs 3hrs of computer-analysed assessment and tweaking.
