How to Fit Your Bike

Bike fit is very important…

• Measure the top tube
• Ride the bike for at least 20 miles 10 times
• Ride the bike on and off road (if it is a mountain bike)
• Move the seat fore and aft position (start out with it in the middle)
• Try an inline seat post if it is fitted with a layback seat post and you are too far back
• Sit on the bike and check your hand position, feel it is might be more comfortable an inch or so forward back etc
• Test heel on pedal with leg out straight (should not be locked out)
• Test plumb line from the bone under the knee and it should go through the ball of the foot
