Yeah Usually these expert village videos are so bad I make it a point to avoid them. This confirms that.

[flarez]

wtf what a moron... badtube :(

[SovietGrizzly]

What the hell is this bull? First of all i learned nothing from this video. I feel like i would be worse off walking into my local bike shop after listening to this then i would if i would have just waltzed right in and asked the bloak and the counter. The guy doesnt even seem like he enjoys his job.. you're a disgrace and this video is a disgrace. good day to you!

USELESS... anyone looking at buying a road bike would know all of this stuff already...

[wagonman01]

From the description: "Finding a road bike to fit your needs, takes choosing the right size road bike and getting the right size frame in this free sporting video on choosing a bicycle."

I did not learn anything at all. With this video, I did not find a road bike to fit my needs, I did not learn how to choose the right size road bike or the right size frame.

I strongly believe this should be taken off Youtube. It is worthless, pointless and faux-intelligent.

i don't know much about biking...i'm 6'1" 200lbs, what bike size should I start looking at?? thanks for the info...

[taffboyslim]

Same size as me (give or take 10lbs !) and I'm getting a 58cm frame

[jgomes1992]

[generatrix999]

More worthless info from Expert Village

[airscrew1]

More useless rubbish from Village Idiot. I mean Expert Village. Who thought of that name for this channel?

[ajwf95]

So...what have I learned? "It is really important to get a good fit." Cool. That make sense. Wait a minute....

[prettydarnhot]

wat a useless video

[msmckinney777]

Did he really just say, "you're in a STATIC position"??? OMG, riding is dynamic, you are constantly changing...I

[admec1]

Yes you are moving your legs, but the upper body mainly stays static. Your legs provide the power to the transmission and movement of the upper body is restained to conserve enegy. Velodrome cycling is a good example.

[msmckinney777]

Your body is not in a static position.

Tops, hoods and drops moves your upper body.

Standing moves your entire body.

IF, you're going to put out a video about bike fit, make it useful...this is what people are saying. Talk about seat postion w/OUT using KOPS... seat height w/out rocking...bar drop w/out straining...reaching w/out issues. DO NOT go to anyone to get a bike fit. Actually learn what you're looking for in a fit and do it yourself. Most fitters are a rip off.

[srclimb1]

PLEASE CEASE AND DISIST WITH YOUR FIT VIDEOS! They're not helpful and are just complicating issues that people have & want to know about. If one wants fit advice go to a Professional. It's worth every penny. They know about anatomy & physiology, proper position for different body types, diff. styles of riding(racing to casual), seat & HB height is cake. And true pros know of advanced fit issues created by guys like the one above giving poor advice to the masses, use your BRAIN!!!

[allth3s4me]

fitting the saddle is dead easy to do just set it as you feel comfy but this was actually helpful. the size of the frame is the most important aspect if you wanna order the frame or something. good vid

[shinie21]

this video was not helpful--how should i fit the bike? how high should the seat be? (up to where...)
