BIKE FIT TIPS FOR ENDURANCE RIDING FEAT. PHIL BURT

[@Steelhead67]

Wow, Phil is so fluent across such a broad range of topics - amazing. I expected him to be knowledgable after reading his book, but it's impressive to see how fluidly he can explain these complicated ideas! Thanks Katie!

[@PatrickArchibald]

Never considered the difference between running and cycling. You can self compensate for your wonkiness when running but not when cycling. Makes total sense. Thanks for this endurance series. Very helpful. ☮

[@plusbonus1165]

Life is full of climbs and you, Katie , help us reach the peaks. Well done on bringing this relevant content.

[@Jim-ub9qy]

This was great Katie! How terrific it would be to have a bike fit with Phil (if only you weren't 4,000 miles away from me). Your videos always have great content and I recommend them to all cyclist that I know. Well done Katie and Phil!

[@paulblundell3053]

As always, fantastic content. Thank you Katie and Phil.

[@j.r.newton2427]

He makes it sound so simple!

[@funofflying15]

Funnily enough, I spent £180.00 on a Retul Bike Fit today at my local cycling store, for my new Canyon Grail:ON e-gravel bike. Main problems were sore sit bones and aching hands. The bike fit was extremely thorough and went through just about everything and I felt much more comfortable by the end of it. Now I need to cover some distance to see if the adjustments made suit my riding style etc.?

[@Austin6403]

Your content keeps getting better & better Katie! =) And not too long like I find many GCN tech videos

[@Geoscot]

I have been waiting for this, looking to learn wherever I can, thanks. I could listen to Phil talking about bike fit all day.

[@KatieKookaburra]

Me too!!! He knows it all!

[@tonythomas8435]

Thanks Katie for this video. Great info and easy to undrrsatand!

[@ASFAR-kg5cw]

That was great.Thanks for the video :) A subscriber from Morocco love cycling

[@johnmcshane4515]

Really useful ..very good info. ..I am relatively new to road bikes ..so aches and pains ( hands and shoulders mainly) have been an issue. Always good to learn

[@MelCruzado]

Thanks for the video, planning first century ride next month and these were great tips.

[@naga3929]

Hi there Phil, Thanx for the video Katie.

[@nommh]

Oh wow! Handle bar width and numb hands. I‘ll have to look into that. Thanks for the video.

[@jamesphillips9632]

Cracking advice , I really need a bike fit , I get a lot of numbness in my left foot and knee pain , and I think my left leg is not rotating as strong as my right , after watching your video Katie I think I need a shorter crank arm

[@PumpkinVillage]

That was great. Wish we had a place like that around here. Take care and stay safe, Al

[@MuppetAlex1]

There is a bike fit set up a out 7 miles from me. Quite tempted as my local roadie club is doing an audax on the 19th (welland valley cc). Funny but although the bike fitters are welland valley as well, they are nothing to do with the club. Sooo, they have 3 packages. Entry at £65, intermediate at 125 and the full package for 165. What set up would you go for for endurance?

[@fritzdit7829]

Very interesting .... never knew the effects of crank length as mine simply were what they were.... must say a bike fit did help my knee pain so I will always suggest it. 👍

[@GrenvilleMelonseedSkiff496]

Some mornings I'm feeling wonkier than others! Off on another group ride today ... weather starting to turn cooler here in Quebec. Time to consider some new gear to stay warm. Hold Fast !

[@brianward7724]

Out-takes yet, Katie!!! Very professional!! I see you left one in, though. It was when Phil said "phrased a coin" - or is that the way you say it over there? Re your 'main' camera: throw away the one that is NOT your main camera, Katie! Finally, your face appears as it really is, not that looong one that you usually show. How long have you had the Sony Mirrorless? Last month, I bought a Canon Mirrorless, the M50, and I love it. It is so small (with the kit lens on) that it fits in one pocket of my jersey (though I will get a handlebar bag for it). I have never had a Bike Fit but I have been riding for many years, including some fairly long rides and have not had a problem that I can remember. Keep the vids coming and best wishes to you from Downunder!

[@fapfpv2832]

Great advice - thanks for sharing 👌

[@davidsubritzky9763]

Great tips for hand numbness thanks Phil Great ideas Katie thanks

[@PulseZ4]

What stem are you running, Katie? Length and rise.

[@marcpencott]

Hello, I like your videos, very informative, do you have a video of how to start off cycling, not everyone can afford to buy the top range bikes, hints and tips to what to buy and what to avoid would be canny.

[@KatieKookaburra]

Have a look in the description I have written a whole ebook about that :) I also did a 10 part video series for new cyclists. It’s in my playlists section of my channel

[@matthewcrich5951]

I often hear about saddle height. Saddle adjustment fore & aft but very little mention of saddle tilt. As a new rider (longest ride was 12 km) but when I’m in the drops the pressure on my man bits is quite uncomfortable. Would a slight tilt down alleviate that? Cheers from 🇨🇦

[@secretagent86]

another good video. thanks. recently i put my bike on a trainer...and found the lower handlebar position uncomfortable (yet does not bother me on the road). so i raised it about 2.5 cm and it feels fine. will have to test it on the road. Another funny thing occurred to me. what does someone call "endurance ride". standards will vary. for me it used to be say four plus hours (as teen), now i think 3 or 3.5 hours is endurance ride. longest ride ever only just over 6 hours 135 miles. when really out of shape a 40 km ride felt long. now 50 km is routine.

[@KatieKookaburra]

Yeah it’s all relative but for me anything more than 100km I would say is endurance :)

[@kevd62]

The important thing is that he is a 'Physio' he knows what he is talking about!

[@markbulmer1840]

Phil I get neck pain after a 40 50 mile ride. Im on a specialized gravel bike so position is more up but seems like I'm looking up which courses the pain.

[@KatieKookaburra]

Drop him a message on his channel or email him :)

[@darrellcarter1163]

Great vlog Katie what top have u got on looks nice skinny K x

[@mattmacpherson1033]

I am wonky for sure. After 20 miles I get locked up in my mid back area up to my C-7. Not sure what to do. Raised handlebars. Got a new seat. Shortened handlebars. Etc....

[@KatieKookaburra]

Defo worth a bike fit :) I am so grateful Phil sorted me out, he is a bloody magician with bike fit!!!

[@johnboyginger]

First comment yay. I’m in a bike fit hole so timely video!!

[@abedfo88]

I love Phil. His book is my bible.

[@SwearyCyclist]

I've been there, Phils a nice bloke.

[@naga3929]

Yay....Second Comment...Hi and Good Evening Kay Kay

[@nagarajukeerthi8094]

"Good morning Good morning " is officially my favorite segment in each of your videos.😁

[@Fletcher1992]

Nice Victory Chimp facemask! ;)

[@kindereggsurprise]

Im running 36c :]

[@rkgr2]

If I went to this guy, he would say get your ass in shape then come back and we'll talk.

[@KatieKookaburra]

Nahhhhh never! He says the opposite... go to him BEFORE buying a bike or doing loads of kms on the bike. He also never tells someone they are doing anything ‘wrong’ - just a top bloke!

[@alvaradesign5981]

I like your bike

[@Otayeh]

She is Soo beautiful ! What a lovely soul

[@KatieKookaburra]

Thanks Omar!

[@matthafer2415]

My toes fall asleep!?!?! help...

[@deldewar5893]

“We’re all wonky”. I’ve been called worse in my time....

[@KatieKookaburra]

Me too 😂😂

[@ridgebackdk]

seems to be a hole in the bike market once you hit the 5 foot 9 plus or minus you fall between the medium and large most of the time ... bike fitting does not get the time or credit it deserves either... from seats to shoes... you spend a fortune on a basic bike and need to spend a load more to just get comfortable.... bike fashion changes every few months ...not to sure about the road bikes but with mountain bikes things change so fast.... its quite confusing when you are only start out ..

[@daviddjerassi]

Thank you again because your going to a lot of trouble for your followers .

Does cycling affect sex life
