- Back to Sigma Sports to check out Rob Quirks bike fit. He's doing a ridiculous ride across a country soon so needs to be comfortable on the bike. Problem is he has the highest foot arches in the world.

I love how incredibly informed and educated James is, I want to travel from Australia to get a fit
Hogg is in your country. As is neil stanbury. Please contact them.
After watching your videos, I decided to go for a bike fit. I was having knee and foot pain. Now the bike has 155mm cranks, a wavey woo and wider shoes. Night and day difference, so easy to ride now. Can’t wait for the cold weather to end in Chicago.
Here we have the cyclist in his natural environment, experiencing discomfort and pain and sharing with their friends. But always wearing Lycra
I always like Francis' chimes of honesty that come in from behind the camera. Can always nip some BS in the bud quickly.
That bike is just a little bit special!
I swear there is one more person in that bike fit studio every episode! liking the bit of Hilltop Hoods in the background also.
Wish I could afford to go to Australia and have James fit me to my bike. But using these videos, I’ve solved most of my pain issues. Saddle to high was a major piece of the puzzle. Cleats to far forward was also causing issues. So far I’ve reduced my pain issues by about 90% and have not lost any power. This series of videos with James have helped immensely.
good to hear! but we are in the UK not Australia!
My DIY bike fit resulted in my changing the saddle for a small armchair and I have removed the pedals, cranks, and derailleur. It is now the most expensive balance bike in Sussex.
Trouble is, it only works well going down hill.
Rob Quirk comes to bike fit tuesdays! Results in video twice the usual length! 😂
Fascinating stuff as always! BFJ/BQ a good combo for info-splurge. Cheers!
Bike fit James needs to write a book
it would be effing long.
maybe a video better :)
The importance of well fitted shoes, so much a lesson to learn.
Seriously how to have fun doing almost anything. Just get people together doing stuff that they like and it happens. Very cool. Hi Daisy.
Straight Jedi bike fitter JT is!!!
Saint James of The Unending Bike Fit you mean?
Seriously glad I didn't buy cleat wedges. Easily the best explanation I've seen of those.
Love it when Rob is in the video!!! What a guy!!!
Bike fit Tuesday with Rob and David Bowie playing on the background
Gorgeous guitar man
Another great video!! And finally a video that helps visually with the bike fit for shoes/feet/knee pain!
James knows, Francis plays, Rob builds!!!!!
Dude, solid episode man. Super dig it.
Barefoot cycling we need to make this a thing. I will make some wooden pedals and write a book about riding barefoot with the native MAMILs.
Re comment at 03:22 , yes this is true but this is due to spinal disc compression throughout the day I.e. stuff happening above your pelvis, and so leg length and therefore saddle height would be relatively unaffected by this phenomenon? It could of course potentially affect your reach to the handlebars.
10:48 Organisation 101 with James !!! xD
Wedge with thick edge on lateral side solved my knee pain issue. I have valgus feet. Not inevitable that they don't solve pain issues.
carlos flanders Valgus both feet? How many wedges fixed it?
I loved this!, felt like for once someone talked in the fitting room as much as james.
Born to Run, and if you have pain in running, highly recommend you try it! That said, don't lose your toes on your bike, wear shoes when pedaling :D
James v rob in a talk off
bobby quick
Seriously hard to predict who would win, Francis Cade is pretty good at a chat when he wants to be.
please no offense, but it cracks me up to hear a bunch of hipsters squawking about being called a hipster and how they're not hipsters. :)
You're a hipster
Mr Cade likes mr Hendrix.
Good taste sir.
Bet you like Robin Trower too.
And SRV....
I’m really loving your content ✊🏾👊🏾
Bobby he be Quick, but not when it comes to a bike fit.
How about...JT does a UK tour fixing people's positions. Like those touring health programmes. I can't afford to go to London.
Do you live on the west coast of America by any chance?
Fortunately(?) not. Worcestershire.
Best idea ever
Yes, I do
Everyone has a beard (including me) - what's the world coming to
Seb K rediscovering masculinity. . ... right?
Bike fitting bike probably has bb30 bb. Creaking starts at 12:38.
You should buy Lake Wide shoes with the mouldable carbon heels. About £300. Kangaroo leather upper. Best shoes in the world.
Same with me as with Rob, allways seeing more right half of bike. I think my spine might be crooked 🤔
He comes across as a pretty competent fitter but I'd rather send someone off to a podiatrist for proper leg length discrepancy assessment. I'm not a huge fan of shimming a cleat either and would try and increase support through as much of the foot as possible with a quality insole. This guys a good bike fitter.
When you have a (Bike-fit) is it done for one riding position only or any ride position IE On the hoods or drops
multiple positions, you should be comfortable on hoods, tops and drops!
Great vlog. I bought my shoes because of the same reason. Ha ha
Quirk is a cool dude
You hit my sweet spot on this video. My left patella is a bit higher than the Right and I could never been able to ride pain free on road cleats actually. So is backward cleat adjustment the correct call for a higher patella?
If wedges don't improve knee tracking then what are they for?
Rob Quirk, yeh, wish I could afford one of his bikes.
2:30 this was so funny!
That guy sounds like to many crashes without his helmet on!
Can you link to those insoles?
Thank god Easter is over and bike fit Tuesday is back....yay!......... best yet.......can all problems be solved with an arch support?......even N.Korea’s nuclear development.
Nah, That Kim fella's blates got his saddle too high.
Hmm probably he needs to go to the Chiropractor first to adjust his body alignment before doing a bike-fit.
Twääng ! 🤘
never use a wedge thick side out? how to compensate for forefoot valgus?
extremely rare and generally run it neutral but good point!
at what point would you consider the use of a valgus wedge?
bert reed depends on how much valgus and whether or not it affects the foot in the shoe. The statement is slightly out of context - I’d never fit a valgus orientated wedge to prevent knee displacement
God status! James i assume?
The Hendrix bit at the end is the only good I took away from this video , too much weird stuff going on. From another time and another place.
If the shoe fits.......
Link to James website please
he works @sigmasports!
What a weird date
Octave pedal action?
Hendrix octave fuzz!
You lost me @5:26 seems like that is exactly what your after
Who's the Hilltop Hoods fan?
Joe Slater me
James Thomas good to see their music has travelled that far from Australia.
Bowie¬¬¬¬
Francis, are you still vegan? I've been vegan for 3 months now
Yeah!
I will check it out on Facebook! But I live in the US so won't get to ride until I visit the UK one of these days. Thanks!
Rob is so pretty :(
