Bike fitting: ergofit2 vs competitive cyclist

Disagree.

 

Remember this is done via a scientific computerised program that works out your setup according to your flexibility, length, etc....so so you won't really be left in pain, some muscles will stretch a bit as they will be working like they should for their full potential. if you suffer from heavy back pain then you know it is a lack of core muscles or something else.

 

My saddle was lifted with around 3cm, stem was moved, etc. Had it all done at one go, that is why you do the setup. Rather get it all done at once and be in pain for about 3 rides max. I went for a 100km cycle the next day and actually felt really good, legs were sore due to them stretching further but overall it felt very good and comfortable.

 

Give Renay a call at Epic, if i heard correct the other day he done around 200 of them, so clearly it works....

since the is a mere 20yr difference between me and Mtb roadie,I still think it has been more prudent for me not to go up the full amount in one go. it has given my muscles a bit of time to adjust.

 

I have now gone up a bit more to(2.5cm in total 5mm to go). i will see how it goes. it does feel like i am using different muscle and the position feels very much like bum up and head down.
