I started filming stuff in April 2016. Now we're travelling the world and filming it, I'd forget what I've done otherwise.
Bike fit Tuesdays are the best. You can really tell James is passionate and knowledgeable. Great info!
Eric Cornell he's beilkiant
Brilliant rather
At last a black Tshirt, James got the message.
I agree, definitely look forward to bike fit Tuesdays.
Totally agree with you Eric 👍
I went from 170mm to 165mm cranks with good result about a year ago. There's a lot of tradition in cycling geometry that needs to be challenged. I also ride a "too small frame". Highly recommended ;-)
I always seem to come away from your videos with a feeling of jealousy. I can't find anyone here in Japan that comes close to the amount of knowledge about bike fit, and he is super articulate in his explanations. Fantastic.
My grandfather was one of only a couple of bespoke frame builders in the Uk in the 70s and it took him a long time to develop his craft not some short course, You can get the gist quickly but to custom build a frame to a proper in house fit is a time earned skillset. Proper advice and truth from this guy.
James is like the crazy mad cycling-scientist of these videos...
Always amazed at all the knowledge this guy drops!
Fantastic session yesterday! Thank you so much to James
Would love to see an in-depth fitting for a fixed gear- or rather, a track bike being used as commuter or for longer rides 🙏
The best bike fit Tuesdays that are filmed on a Monday to date
'sigma sports' very kind of James to promote the old gig. Good to see the band back together. Had 165 cranks for a while and found the ability to ride in fast bunches very hard. Fast burst of acceleration were tough especially with a 52t ring. Gone back to 170 and 172.5.
I've just realised this was an old vid
By far and away the best videos on your channel - long live bike fit Tuesdays.
I kept my Eddy Merckx Corsa I bought in 93,so glad I did. Apart from looking fantastic in team Motorola colours she`s still a great performer.
Interesting video of fitting Francis,so much has changed since I was fitted up in the late 90`s.
I must admit that Bike Fit Tuesday's have become one of my favs on your VLOG list.
The most knowledgeable video on TH-cam.
eh, not really
Geeios1 good to know mate
+Cycling Crads there's always one ;)
I love bike fit Tuesdays
The crank length part is great -proves that you all know your stuff, I am impressed :-). I did the same on my TT bike with great results
roland H great to know!
I really enjoyed the crank length discussion. I run 162.5mm on my TT bike and I’m 6ft. An interesting point I’ve found, is a larger chainring and a slightly lower cadence help remove that ‘weirdness feeling’ that James mentioned.
This is so interesting. I'd have to imagine these videos will result in more bike fit appointments for this guy, who seems incredibly knowledgeable and detail oriented. I'm tempted to fly to London just to have him help me choose a new bike!
TW I had a pretty serious injury from playing rugby when I was younger which resulted in a fair amount of surgery so we always knew something wasn't quite right, it was a case of what. James and I are working closely with my coach Ken to try and refine and work out. A bike fit is a process of tweaking and refinement which we are hoping to do over a period of time as I've been having issues since the national 24hr. Keep watching I'm sure we will keep referring back as we hopefully get things better and better 👍
Im a mountainbiker with no intrest in roadbiking but i love your videos . And im now even thinking about geting a cx bike.
Awesome vid. Really glad Chris got a professional fit done. The tech available can find out so much that the naked eye simply cannot. very happy coach!
I'd love to get chris along to an aero testing session so that we can definitively prove how much faster/slower the proposed bike fit changes will make him
Ken Buckley LETS DO IT! Francis you game to film?
Wow! This was an incredible and educational video. My local bicycle shop did a good job with my bike fit, however it was not this comprehensive. I agree with other commenters that James is the master bike fitter. I learned so much from watching your videos Francis. Thank you. I especially enjoy your travel road trips video with James and Lawrence. I just finished up watching the Project USA (west coast) and the Australia series. You are inspiring me to get out there more often.
This was such a great, informative video! And the back story on James' beautiful bike was awesome.
Good one. Again very interesting and it has Chris in it too
imwithpanda thank you!!
I've got about a 5mm leg length discrepancy as a result of breaking the ankle joint and the two lower bones in the left leg.. After ALL these years -just by chance -I bought a used Shimano 105 crankset that was 170mm vs the usual 175 mm. I used the 170mm for the short leg and a 175mm Specialized for the right leg. After some initial knee pain on my first few rides I have no problem and my butt does'nt get shredded like it used to.
Another great bike fit tuesday video, keep them coming.
165mm 52/36 for me with Specialized Power saddle 143 for Devon hills. It works.
I look forward to bike fit Tuesday's every werk now.could you please do a follow-up with Chris to see how he gets on with the changes. Great video as always
this guy is a genius, his knowledge is incredible, thanks for the video.
James is my hero 🤙🏽👏🏼👏🏼🤓
Great and very interesting video and up-to-the-minute data on the fit thanks
Best BFT so far!
Gorgeous bike, I am not much of a fan of the color green, but I love it on a bike. That's a beautifully understated bike, but beautiful none the less
Great video, really enjoying this series of Bike Fit Tuesday. And the slow mo bikes just add to it
awesome!!! finally got Chris fitted!! its always something new with a bike fit or at least new information!!
Mike Aparicio proof was that I needed it haha
Chris Hall yeah! At least you know now what needs slight adjustment
Loving Bike fit Tuesdays. Just trying to work out how to schedule a trip to London from up North to let the master do his work on me, my rodie and my Triathlon TT
Awesome freaking vid! Tech n useful bits without being TECHY.
Do have to agree with others, a little slower pan across the bikes. Especially something as unique as an Artisan Steely. See ya tomorrow ......Cheers
I would love to watch an episode of Bike Fit Tuesday on track/fixed gear bikes fit
I wonder how that would work and would u change it for brakeless
Another great video, Francis!
I do have a request for you though - you should totally create a public Spotify playlist of the music you've been using in your videos. Your taste in music is as good as in bikes ;)
barely any tracks are on Spotify! All from SoundCloud!
Very interesting video as always thanks!
Jesus, that bicycle is beautiful.
Hey james, I’ve recently dine two bike fits, the same bikeshop, and they didnt even go into my cleat position, saddle reach... I still have pain in one of my knees, and feel alot of soreness in my glutes, and lower back soreness(he put a 13cm stem on my bike), and when I addressed it with him, he told me it was because I have lack of physical preparation, considering I ride 10-13h a week, plus stretching... I’m guessing It doesn’t really make sense
Love the bike!!!!! great vlog I really enjoyed the bike fit.
Dude's Steel Autumn bike is fuckin sexy man... great color on it, and matching stem is a nice touch. Boutique steel frames made to order are en vogue at the moment... he's right about that...
Superb...clear concise and informative. Great vid in every way.
Love this guy!
Excellent video. I’m moving from Peru to London in a couple of months and for sure I’m going to pay a visit to James! Kudos
I accidentally heard genital reduction for Genital discomfort I was like 😮
Also nice to see Chris' freakish leg length discrepancy properly diagnosed. ;)
Nope. It's pelvis angle caused by sleeping on his "long" side. Points right to it with the saddle pressure. The body compensates for small leg length discrepancy by changing the ankle angle to the pedal.
Yeah, he's had the quite large discrepancy since a serious accident which lead to surgery. But don't worry, Geeios knows about Chris more than Chris does.
Francis Cade apparently he does! 😂
Fantastic opportunity to call Chris an arse at the beginning there, woefully missed!
Pratalax thank god they missed that one
Yes love the bike fit videos
Doesn't a dual powermeter measurement could help the evaluation of uneven saddle pressure or arm numbness, cause of the extra weight we are trying to put on our weaker leg/side?
Nice bike....like richard sachs....best ever steel
Great video
Great blog, nice section on the bike review, would have been nice to have had a few more lingering shoots of the bike. Very interesting discussion around the bike fit.
Damn, i really need to go to sigma for a fit one day. this is what all fits should be like, customers walk out with the fit and more educated on the matter as well.
+Faris Faizal absolutely, James knows his stuff.
Its great that you can hear him clearly because you werent asking questions when he was eating!
Not enough tech, not enough details, not long enough.. =D
Great video and loved the bike
I need to have him fit me for a bike!
This is great stuff.
Late for bike fit Tuesday watching it on a Wednesday
love a bit of bike fit tuesday's long may it continue! #helmetsqueeze
awesome video mate! james inspired to get down to sigma for a fit!
I love these!
Nearly 8th...great video, really informative
+Tony Hussey thanks Tony!
Top notch sir 👍
I am 5' 10" but only have 29" inside leg so struggle with bikes.
Man, this series is getting better every week!
Can you tell me the name of the brand that makes JTs bike?
Non native english speaker here, so its kinda hard to understand you english people sometimes!
www.autumnframeworks.com/
Just checked the website. WOW!
Thanks (Y)
Francis looking at buying a new saddle, get uncomfortable after about 20miles any recommendations??
What does a session like this cost? Factoring in the new saddle, changes to shoes, cranks etc., what is the financial damage?
+Matthew Kitchen session is £250. Parts vary in price massively - Chris rides an infocrank which is £1200 on its own!
Wow! But it looks well worth the investment.
And the $64000 question is would JT do a HT mountain bike fit? or has he ever fitted someone with an anterior locked fusion at L5S1? Damn good vid Mr Cade........
Thanks JT, I'll be in touch.
Francis grew a mustache and is now French....
I’m enjoying the bike so far th-cam.com/users/postUgkxMesz3KOGEmwmvyKQfLfrRSUXLFzfVHZA My only real complaints are the brakes and the pedals. I feel like a bike designed for bigger people should have much larger pedals and more heavy duty brakes. I’ve only gotten two really good rides out of it, minimal downhill action, and the brakes feel like they’re already going out. A larger person has more momentum, so I think this wasn’t thought through very well. Also, I wear size 13-14 wide shoes. My feet cramp up on these pedals that are clearly made for smaller feet. Since I’m not a pro rider (and I don’t think many are who purchase this bike) I don’t think that the straps on the pedal are necessary at all. None of this takes away from the enjoyment I get from riding, however. I’ll just head to a bike shop to improve on a few things.
1:04 my mom in the crowd embarrassing me
These videos are a great insight to bike fitting. I'm looking at ISM as a saddle option. I had a fit recently on my road bike and have the ability to get quite aggressive. To what reason did the fitter not see the ISM saddle as suitable for the road? I've heard mixed opinions.
I've got one leg slightly shorter than the other but I've never thought about it affecting my cycling, maybe I should shove something under the insole.
On a frequent basis James will mention bike shops that provide "bad" bike fits with them going on 3 day courses, buying the gear and providing a subordinate service. But, as I'm sure many will agree, we can't easily get to sigma sports so how do we know whether what is provided is suitable? Are there certain qualifications to look out for?
P.S. love the videos
Thanks, are there any other things to look out for?
James Thomas. Thanks again
Really interesting :)
And, I almost forgot #steelisreal
I feel like my bike feels fine but I’ve never had a fit now I’m convinced it’s all kinds of wrong....
Is the bag for helmet squeezing ?
+MiQDropTV yes.
Wish I could get. A fit w you guys... but I think I already know what you’d tell me. ...
do you guys have any bike fitter on the state side that would recommend? if I had the means I would totally go to UK and meet you guys! but I dont have that kind of money :) thanks again for the help on the Shoes help over email. Andy was great
What’s James education?
I'd like to know that also
❤️
You have probably said this before but I am new to your channel...where can I find this man James for a bike fit? I'm 6'6 and starting to get a few knee issues as I up my mileage and think it is fit related.
Hey Francis (deadpool voice)
In relation to cycling shoes, I'm normally a size 10UK. I ordered a pair of northwave cycle road shoes size 11, they were 1 big for me. So returned them and ordered a size 10. These fit me but i feel my toes is restricted to movement. Are your toes able to move freely in road cycling shoes?
+Usman Rabbani my toes move around a bit!
Trevcycle 👍
So... If I can do 210rpm on 172.5, can I do 230 on 165?
Tobias Dahlhaus really dependant on the person. For me the shorter crank in the tt position corrected my knee a lot
Tobias Dahlhaus fixed gear down a 25% hill, yes
Francis as alway great blog
We're is James based .
I had a bike fit done a year a go and it was no way as in formative as James is bike .
I'm getting a new bike and I would like to get James to do the bike fit
Would that be possible ......?
Love those videos! I'm in the market for a fit myself, but I kind of can't find a place trough online research where i say "I like those guys, they seem to offer what I'm looking for". By chance anyone know a good place to visit in Austria?

Thank you!
Microbars or millibars
Im on my 3rd saddle. My ass still kills me
Nice video... do you filter your footage? Also guys I also started to.do som content on bikes. Not as good as this though. If you want check it out.... thanks
Almost third!!😢
Honestly, that bike looked like it had an olive green finish.
Or maybe even pickle green. *PICKLE RICK*
Almost first
'at this moment in time' 'no brainer' next thing I was expecting the advice to be work on your 'kpi's' jayzus just ride the fechin thing?
I can’t trust a fitter that can’t fit his t-shirts
It’s be great to see more of the bike and less of the bloke
He has no bulge .
First
