MyVeloFit - my thoughts….

So I have been riding bikes for 20 years now, but never had a professional fit in my life. I’ve had my seat height the same for at least 10 years now, fit on my bikes has been pretty identical for as long as I can remember… little more stack on my gravel bike but otherwise stack, reach, seat height, etc all carry over pretty well. Also never had any use injuries from cycling…

Decided to try out Myvelofit and pay for a fit on a new bike I’m dialing in and to my surprise my seat height was lowered by about 15mm from what I’ve been riding for years… and it feels great….this was a huge surprise to me… all my other measurements/fit were about dialed in, recommended a slight longer (5mm) reach and bar height (5mm) on the bike I’m dialing in, but lowering my seat was a big surprise for me…

I’ve only got a few rides on the new fit so far, but so far it just feels better than my past position… less strain on arms and bottom…

Anyways, just wanted to put out some good thoughts on the service… for $35 to realize my saddle has been about 15mm too high all these years… and looking forward to really seeing how it impacts my feel longer term once I get a bunch more hours on the fit…
