Great video Lewis, I think you're right, £500 seems crazy money for a bike fit. I try and look at it like this "how much would you pay to cycle pain free" and that's probably more than £500. See you at Outlaw!

Thanks dude! The annoying pain that I’ve been getting in my hip I’d quite happily pay a lot more than that to get rid of it, so you’re definitely right! 😂 See you at outlaw mate! 👊🏼

I think most people should do strength mobility work and assessment before a bike fit. You can't put a price on comfort but comford shouldn't be reserved for the rich.

TT bike is well worth the money , road it is not so much. Are bike fits in colorado are in the price range 250-400 dollars ,high end fit for racing is well worth it.

I do my road bike bike fit with them but when it comes to TT, I found either George Fox or MB were much more knowledgeable and had more specific experience.

@LewisFordham 4 месяца назад

Yeah they were definitely options, they’re both quite a bit further away so I thought I’d start here! Think if I still have issues on the TT I might have to give one of them a visit!

@hannahstewart8299 4 месяца назад

You have some of the same symptoms as me but I'm hesitant to spend the money on a bike fit even though I know it'll be worth it!

@LewisFordham 4 месяца назад

I know, I was the exact same hence why I spent months trying to figure it out myself! After getting a fit myself, the best place to start I think is getting the saddle height correct, and if in any doubt, go on the low side rather than high! Moving the saddle forward helped a lot for me as well, but I’m no bike fitter so my advice might not be best haha!

@@LewisFordham Hey, I am pretty sure this problem stems from lack of mobility in the hips and instability. Look for PAILs and RAILs for hip rotation. And also do Glute Medius exercises, which helps with the stability. After that, your "longer leg" should be in a proper place and the imbalances should go away. Good luck.

500 quid, and your foot still goes numb! Not worth it at all! I got mine for 150 on guru and after an hour worked really well!

@mordechaidome6085 4 месяца назад

Plus, you always leave a bike fit with more gear. Eg changed handlebar or different saddle. You'd leave the fit with another mortgage!

@LewisFordham 4 месяца назад

Yeah I sort of agree to be honest, I know my body had some limitations and whilst I do feel better on the bike, leaving with some small issues still for that sort of cost is a bit worrying!
