Very good video - thank you!

It’s so painful when the placement is too far forwards.

Who is "they"? I tell this to my customers all the time.

lookin' at the TdeF-riders, it looks like many had INWARD-pointing Hoods. Any opinion on that? buona fortuna! sub'd/lkd

Having some tingling and numbness after being off the bike for a month from surgery. Gonna try this, thanks for sharing!

Who is “they”?

Great!

Been doing ‘bike fit’ for past 10 years… Position of shifters CRUCIAL…

Don't forget that the bars themselves are important. Way too many people are riding on stock 420 mm bars when 400's are a much better fit. If you can fit your shoulders in between the ends of the drops (on a standard ~10° flare), your bars are too wide.

Fantastic advice. I've been riding for 10+ yrs and never bothered or knew to look at this. My hands/wrists are now 1000% better. No more numb arms after longer rides!

Thank you, for there good placement demonstration!

what frame is that

If you use a level it should be on a roughly 9 to 10 degrees angle upward.

Great video, saved in my bike set-up tips. Definitely a keeper

Fantastic Works great Thank you

Thanks for a very useful explanation.

Excellent. Very useful info. I've just swapped by stock bar for a Surly Truck Stop bar, and getting the angles just right has been bit of a faff-a-thon. I more or less came to the same conclusion, but it's nice to have one's hypothesis confirmed. Next step -- I need to learn how to wrap a drop bar. My first few attempts have been real ugly! Cheers

Appreciate about your inputs

exactly... however having the bar just slight angled up is a bit more ergonomic. You then do as suggested and place the shifters flat to the bar.

imagine if he falls off at the max speed..that would look messy af

I'd rather have the old "huge drop" from bar to hood with a quilted stem than the the modern bars on an ahead stem 15cm below the saddle by default.

superb!

More of that You have a gift to be very clear! Bravo!

Bravo! Thank you!

I thought I bought a big frame. But my hood were little more down . I put it up like yours and reach is mych better now. I hope it will make it comfortable .

2 very happy men in my house fighting over this Super product

Yeah nice but, on the other hand, the dip between the handlebar and the hood provides space for your hand and allows to rest your forearms on the handlebar when holding the hoods by the forward protrusions with your elbows at 90 degrees.

I’m enjoying the bike so far ua-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.

So, shifter placement? Unless I’m missing something, there’s not really any variability with regard to how the hood is installed.

Are you John Hamm's little brother?

Any idea, what's the effect of hood position regards front hub on manouverability? I think farther (towards the front) the hood from front hubb, more difficulty in maneuvering the bike.

2:17 shouldn't the bar edge/opening be 90° to the ground?

So rad, shes probably pulling backflips by now! Great job Dad!

New to all this .. can I adjust hood position after bars are taped?

Good points thanks

Completely agree, also I find tilting the hoods inward just a bit makes it more comfortable too. Check out how your hands are when you reach them forward, the thumb is not straight up but at an small angle. I'm not talking about the angle pros are using much less.

Completely agree, on a whim I purchased a set of Splesh shoe inserts and wow what a difference. It corrected and straightened out my legs due to flat feet and eliminated my knee pain as a result among better foot comfort and peddling efficiency. One of those "I should of done this years ago".

This is exactly what my mower needed! Problem solved, and it’s now running better than it ever has! It didn’t even run this well brand new and out of the box! Thanks!

Nice!!!😊

The rea 250 rpm is playback speed 2x

is 230 RPM max, not 250. Very good one but not 250.

Fast

Thanks for sharing!

I think That roller has no resistance aside from the rider's owm weight.. In essence it's like a free wheel down hill

In all of the hundreds of bike fit videos I have watched, you are right, no one has talked about this fitment need. Your analogy of let the hood come to your hand, not your hand to the hood, is a good one. As soon as you started mentioning your wrist angles and issues, I looked over at one of my bikes and see that my control hoods are way down on the bar like they came from the factory. Now I know why I dont usually use the hoods for position very often. They are placed wrong and too difficult to get comfortable. It seems so obvious of a consideration, yet so under stated that many people do not know of the importance. Now, I have some work to do and bar tape to buy. I will also now be watching for hood placement on other bikes, both on the road locally and in youtube videos. Thank you so very much for taking the time and efforts to put this very well made video up for us to learn from.

this is insane from what i've experienced from roller training

Thanks Mr Longbeach

Great content!!!
