Education Video Series: Fitting and Adjusting Your Bike

Smart Cycling

Bikes & Gears

by Liz Murphy

Once you've got your bike all picked out, there are a few things you've got to check off the list before you get riding.

As part of our release of a series of education videos, we're highlighting one of these 19 videos every Monday on the League blog.

This Monday, we're taking a look at "Fitting and Adjusting" your bike.

Fitting and Adjusting Your Bike

The basics:

Straddle the bike and stand in front of the seat
Lift the front and rear wheels off of the ground until it touches you
If it is a road bike, there should be 1-2 inches between the tires and the ground
For a mountain or hybrid bike, there should be 3-4 inches

View, share and enjoy!

Already I see your video. It's very very important for road bike lover. The bikes tend to be created in a fashion that needs you bend your top part of the entire body giving pressure on the handle bars. The road bike is obviously the quickest option for road bike cycling as well as may be the bike of preference for racing & most skilled road bike cycling enthusiasts. Whichever design you select, when road bicycle cycling always consider making yourself apparent to other motorists by wearing reflective products and using lights.You can see also here : http://empireroadbikes.com/
