Bike Fit on a Peloton Bicycle 

Yes I’ve been waiting for this forever!!!

Thanks. I’m not a road cyclist and watched a lot of videos to get my posture right on the Peloton. I changed the tilt which helped. I also hurt my hip and then back which I think must be due to my more upright position: I thought this would help. I will lower it so I can engage other parts of my body more. It’s been quite a challenge to get a comfortable set up.

Hey Jon!! Really glad to have you back. Learning every video. Tks.

woooo glad to see you back Jon!!

Great videos and nice to see you back with more. Great work !

I really enjoy spinning. Was looking for a used spinning bike to train on at home, vs going to gym. After riding longer than 30 minutes I always experience discomfort, aches and numbing all over, so wanted to know more about bike fitting. was surprised to also learn about different crank lengths. What about ergonomic seats like the ones without a nose to increase bloodflow and relieve pressure on organs and nerves? Rhis is important to me especially being a woman who will be riding daily during pregnancy and exercising from home..

Hallo, well done. Please make a video about the power meter for cycling/gravel. The Faveron uno is my favorite. Thanks.

glad to have you back in youtube, saludos!

How do i manage Osgood-schlatter at my patela? Are there any specific bike fit that could ease this? Glad that you're back, your videos helped a lot

Hey, thanks for the great videos. I'm glad to see you're back. Do you have any tips on how to determine the correct stem length and angle? I have issues on both my MTB and my road bike, I feel like I'm too far away from the controls, which causes me to tip forwards at a more aggressive angle and I simply do not have the fitness for such an angle. This means that on long road rides my neck suffers a lot when my torso and core are no longer able to sustain me and on mtb rides I get some of that and some discomfort on the wrists.

Hey Jon. I've had lifelong knock knees/genu valgum. Cycling has created some pain. Do you have any resources with this kind of subject? Adjustments I've made include crank arm length change, speed play, pedal extenders, and some varus tilt shims. Doing some ongoing mobility and glute/hamstring strengthening. My most recent bike fit shows that there's some weird tracking going on. Let me know if you have advice.

How about using a rocker with a stationery bike? Those with elastomer rather than fixed hinges seem to give a more natural motion. What is your opinion?

Any idea what on earth is causing my left sit bone to "hover" off the side of my saddle, I've spent nearly a thousand on multiple bike fits and nothing seems to be able to sort it.

I’m going to disagree with this one in all sorts of ways, mostly with how you support yourself on the bike and how you engage the glutes. Rather than just dismissing this as an idiot running off at the keyboard, I would like you to actually try this. You suggest that the rider supports themselves as a triangle with the two corners of the base being the saddle and handlebars. This makes a bridge structure out of the spine and arms - a defective bridge structure at that. Two things happen, first you support far too much weight on the hands, causing all of the usual discomfort complaints. Second, when you try to push down the quads will engage, not the glutes. The telltale sign is the hip moving back in the saddle - this is the same skill set as lifting your own body weight while standing or walking or running. It’s your most practiced skill set, but it’s recruiting the wrong muscle... Try this instead. Bring the pedals to 3:00 and 9:00 and crank the resistance until the pedals won’t move. Sit bolt upright on the bike, then just like you’re sitting on a chair with the foot on the forward pedal on the floor, lean forward. You’ll find your glutes engage, until your center of gravity gets past the pedal. You’ll also notice that there’s no weight on the bars because it’s all on the pedal. This is just a static case, but it clearly shows the difference between trying to make a bridge between the saddle and bars and supporting the body weight at the pedals.

the videos since comeback have very low volume.

Audio not so good
