OK - he made a few adjustments - saddle further back, handlebars a little lower and big lumpy bits in my shoes to get my legs in the right place. Also gave me some exercises which I have done sporadically. He thinks I need a longer stem, but said to try the changes he made first. Seemed better on the rides I did before my holiday.Originally posted by DaveB View Post
How did you get on with your bike fit btw?
Cycling in Cuba I didn't get any aches and pains - Trek hybrid bikes, much heavier than mine; flat handlebars and front suspension. Out today with CTC (haven't ridden my bike for 3 weeks) and 15 miles in my back was complaining loudly. So dunno.Comment
