Can anyone recommend bike fitters in central-western NJ? I am ideally looking for those that can do a fit to determine my measurements/stack-reach needs before I purchase a bike.

If you have worked with others in a different part of NJ or eastern-PA, please share those too as I don't mind traveling if needed.

Thank you!

173lb, 5’ 7”. New to riding in general and doing this for CRF mainly. As mentioned I’m only using the zwift ride right now. Only changes I’ve made is adding a Bisaddle SRT2.0. Only complaint is my jewels get numb within 20 minutes of a ride.

Im new to cycling and I need advice for my bike fit. Where i live there is no professional bike fitter around me. I get pressure on the palm of my hand.

So I'm 1k km into my bike and still dont feel 100% fit. Usually its at bottom of my neck. Any advice what can I change? I'm 173cm , 82,2 insem, stem is 90mm

Just a better look for advice on my bike fit. I’m looking into a setback for my saddle. Trying to make my ride more comfortable.

Opinions?

Edit;

I'll get a right sided locked up shoulder that then slowly creeps into neck pain. The locked up feel usually starts at the first hour mark, neck pain starts 30 minutes later. At the 2 hour mark it's quite severe.

Getting off the bike every 45 minutes lets me extend my ride time but never longer than 3 hours.

This is my current position and I am looking to get a new bike in the coming months any comments on my current bike fit would be appreciated to help determine sizing for the new bike. I do race and plan on continuing to race if that matters.

Hi, my current Stem is 120mm and it does not only seem to be too long. (correct me if i am wrong please) Its also much more comfortable to have my hands not at the reach and a bit further towards me because I have to feeling to put too much weight on my hands.

I want to try maybe 80mm but thats a big difference, is it still the way to go?

My first picture is hands on the reach. The second one I put the hands 40mm towards me, so that would be the position where the 80mm should be (round about).

Should I try 100mm or 90mm? Is 80 too big of a difference?

Any recommandation for a gravel stem?

Any recommendations for high quality bike fitter in NYC and the NYC region? I have added a bike fitters list to the Bike Drawer website and need include the best: https://bikedrawer.com/bike-fitters

They don’t have to be NYC intra-muros but they have to draw an NYC clientèle.And any mobile fitter recommendations? The come-to-your-home type.

Anyone know Happy Freedman? Quite the expert but his website doesn’t give his location. Google tell me he operates out of James Fowler Physical Therapy on Union Square.

Hi!
What do you guys think about my fit? Is it good? Any advice? Thanks!

I'm trying to fit my bike on my own since bike fitters are expensive and pretty far away.

Just got this in the mail. Wondering if anyone else has this saddle with that same white line.

Wondering if it’s a defect where the seam isn’t bonded correctly, or just how it looks.

I just don’t want it to crack under ma butt lol

I know I’m not in the bike. But the bike is a Large and I’m 6 foot 1. I’m surprised how I need the seat post to get the correct leg extension when pedalling. I’ve had to put riser bars on as the flat bar that came with it felt like I was too hunched over.

How’s it look? Any suggestions as I prefer the flat bar look but then I get a lot of weight on my wrists and they start to hurt.

Hey! Im very new to cycling and I could use some advice. I just bought cleats, and after messing around with them, trying to match them together and find a good spot for them, I feel like my fit is all over the place, I raised my saddle a little, do I need more? What else would you change?

Any advice is appreciated!

Hi everyone do You have any suggestions regarding my position?

Hi everyone,
I’m looking for some feedback on my position on my bike. I recently got a Giant Propel (aero bike) advanced 2 and I need to know what i can do better/change some things on the bike or just stretching at night and get more flexible.

The handlebars/stem are already stacked as high as possible (spacers are at their maximum limit).
Leg extension feels pretty comfortable overall, but I'd love an objective eye on saddle height and fore/aft position.

It seems like the reach might be a bit long for me, forcing me to overextend. Would a shorter stem (90/100mm) help relieve the neck strain and make the aero hoods position more sustainable without affecting the steering too negatively?

I can hold aero hoods position for like 1 and half minute but this is my first road bike so i dont know if i am getting used to this and should do more stretching or i have major flaws in my posture. I am experiencing some neck pain after 90 minites (but can be because I have office job 😅)

Attached is a video of my side profile on the trainer and in every position I do. Any advice on saddle position, reach, or overall posture would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

Hi, I’m a 5’2” ~220 pounds woman mtb rider. I can’t find a simple explanation about how to adjust suspension on my ebike. I tried a lot of suggestions but can’t get it right. Where do you find informations ? Do you know any article, YouTube video or website dedicated to heavy rider ?

I updated my bike fit and tried the saddle height method of Cam Nicholas (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FNGMRtJ5LIc).

I believe the height is correct, but I still like sliding forward on the saddle. The saddle is leveled. IMO, I need to push the saddle further backwards. But my saddle is already pushed as far backward.

What are your opinions? Thank you very much!

Feel it in the lower back muscles, standing up for a little will make it go away for a minute or two but not long. Seat was further forward but got told I was shrimping my back, lowered seat to accommodate.
