Great content, thanks!
Great stuff as always! Just wanted to throw some love your way, you helped inspire me to get my bike commute setup going and I've worked up commuting full time by bike now. Thanks!
This means a lot to me! I’m glad you’re enjoying it. Thanks for following along!
The first point of "choose the right bike" is something i had to convince so many customers of in bike shops!
Customers would come in looking for a bike to commute, and would want to buy the lightest, fastest, road bike to commute 4km 😆
It definitely took me time to realise this too when I started out. Comfort and potentiality triumph speed and looks!
These are some really great bike fitting tips. Thanks!
Cheers! I’m glad you liked them.
Excellent Video!
Thanks! I’m glad you liked it.
Thanks a lot! I am new on your channel. Congratulations on your great job!
Cheers Marcos! Welcome to the channel!
Another great video from probably the best practical biking channel.
I'm a little bit taller than the average bear at 2 metres tall and it took me a long time to extend my seat higher because I liked the reassurance of being able to put at least the toes of one foot on the ground for stability whenever I stopped at traffic lights or for any other reason without having to dismount from the seat.
I raised the seat and it has been noticeably better for me. I didn't have any knee pain before although I am developing arthritis in both knees. But it took a certain amount of unnecessary strain from my leg muscles which was immediately noticeable. Although now I do have to dismount fully from the seat whenever I stop unless there's a convenient kerb to balance one foot on.
What I do have though is discomfort in the crotch area and slightly back when I am in the saddle for extended periods over half an hour. I have tried my own adjustments but the problem remains. I think I will have to go and get a professional fitting and see if that will help. Although I was seriously considering getting a broad comfort saddle with no nose to see if that would help?
Let me guess: ride slower to sweat less ^_^
Btw 8:04 it's the Kiev Velodrome
