I could listen to this guy all day. Knows what he’s talking about. Proper professional.

Love these last 2 fit videos with riders that are “crooked”. Struggled for years. Pain, tears, stagnated performance, sores, pelvic tilt, back pain, even a bit of disability. Narrow stance, arch support, cleats back, 7mm shim on left. Finding incredible power and symmetry ive never experienced. Still out of shape, but moving forward finally.

It was real pleasure to see a professional at work. Especially: I love the way how you communicate what you see, what and why you are changing the things👍

There's absolutely nothing better than watching a master at work. No wasted movement, instant ability to diagnose anatomical issue, formulate the appropriate solutions and see instant improvements.

Love the real bike fits. It shows the real clinical reasoning behind the process. It stops people just stabbing in the dark to fix their issues.

I have had bike fits in the past. But they never accounted for my asymmetry stemming from a slight leg length difference stating the difference is in the normal range. However, I know that I drop my left hip, my left knee almost touches the top tube and I always have saddle discomfort on the left. If Neill wasn't literally on the other side of the globe, I'd certainly book a session with him.

the way neil tells you what he is doing to you as he does it is so good.

This guy speaking is perfect to listen and understand a bit of the bikefit world. He embed his actions with real knowledge as he speaks. Really a joy to see him working.

I would love to see a long term evaluation, from initial fit to a season later. How long ago did you switch Cam from 172.5 to 165 cranks - I would like to see where he is now on the bike if he’s not as restricted at the hip. This case is another interesting one because of all of the asymmetry. Over the next season or two we could see if skeletal alignment changes muscle development.

Bloody amazing, 1 hour to fix. 20 years experience to working out what to fix. If I won the lottery the first thing I'd do would be to book my flight from the UK! I've got one leg at least 10mm longer than the other.

Hey this is really interesting and informative, thanks! It would be great to see a follow up and to hear from Alicia about her experience in the days and weeks following these changes.

Fantastic how much we can learn from you Neill and RCA it shows 90% of cyclists should have a bike fit before any damage is done Thank you.

Very informative without any chit chat.

These videos are absolutely awesome! Seeing all the things that Neill picks up and adjusts for is pretty cool.

I had a fit done 27 years ago but my GP was present which was a great help as he knew a lot about my health .

Thanx to you Neill I am sitting better on my bike I got me a selle smp saddle. It's great. Less problems with shoulders and neck and I got me a variable stem. For the first time since I had 3 car crashes on the hiway I am able to cycle more than 50km without getting sick afterworth. So I am happy. And it's all because of all your great bike fitting video's. Thank you Neill‼️

I'm riding an SQ Labs saddle because of a previous video with Neill. It did the trick for me. Thanks so much. Enjoyed this video as well.

Neil is a bike fitting wizard.

Awesome to watch. I wish there were more bike fitters with such an amount of competence and experience out there. Watching a master craftsman at work is just so rewarding. I was expecting you to suggest a SMP saddle tho 😂😂. Keep up the great work 👍

Neill your expertise is legendary and this video has been HUGELY informative for me. Thanks!

Heck of a job Neill. So many would benefit from one of your comprehensive fits. Thanks for bringing us along. The changes you implemented, made a lot of sense. I am quite certain this woman could drop me. 😊 Her position now looks dialed.👍

Wonderful video. I've seen all there is with Neill on Cam's channel but there's always something new and beneficial to pick up.

Another fantastic and highly informational video. Thank you and please keep them coming.

I really like your videos Neill. Really good information that we all can use to be better educated when we work with our own "Bike Position Physicians"! Cheers from Canada Mate

i have watched so many bike fit videos that i was able to give myself an almost exact fit on my peloton, to the point when i did my pro Peloton bike fit i barely had to change anything. I would love to see a channel like this do an indoor cycling fit video.

Incredibly interesting. So generous in the advice here. Thanks for letting us see this.

When I first saw this dude, It's like you know when you know. So when I look for bike fit stuff. I look, but, judge it by Neill. The guy is spot on. I now don't bother to look for another opinion at all. If I need to now something, I find it on his channel. simple.

Loved you narrating the process. Thanks.

Fantastic content as usual, Neill. Thanks for sharing! +1 to your point towards the end regarding soft tissue adjustment - I recently learned this the hard way. Hard to believe that after many many years of cycling that there's any virgin tissue left down there, but damn is there ever!

Neil when are you coming ou tour around Europe to get some fittings for forlks over here?

Neill is one of the most willing and knowledgeable fixtures in YT. The other is in England

Great video Neill! If you see this rider again in the near future, I would love to see the body adaptations, if any, after all these changes.

another brilliant video!!!!!!!!!!! thanks mate. i learnt heaps of this video

More of this style video! Excellent

I would recommend everyone come to see you - world class impact on the athlete

The latest specialized torch s- works road shoes are great for dialing in foot position, with a built-in lateral wedge and different sized arch insoles, for a molded feel and zero discomfort. I was a Sidi guy since the 90's but tried these out and what a world of difference.

Great video as usual. Really like the attention you give to the rider and the explanation why you do what you do. It makes so much sense!

Lol I thought I was imbalanced damn! The funny thing is the body compensates and still gets it done. I really love how he is so professional and able to communicate what changes and why.

Great vid. Is it me or @9:11 the rear wheel isnt dished properly in the frame and sits more to the right seat stay?

This makes me want a bike fit

Just fantastic video. I feel like I need another fit now. Bravo team.

Great video, tnx Neil ! I have basically the same physical difference as she has. 12mm shorter left leg, 47/53 % left-right power distribution even with the equivalent of a 6.4 ml shim under my left foot.

Brilliant Neill. Yes, i can actually see what you are achieving now. She looks brilliant, like you say.

Well done Neill 👍

I made a big mistake once trying to create Balance with arch adjustments. I cured a slight leg and foot difference with the correct height and fore aft position only.

Neil is the man !!! Congrats mate

I am having major issues at the moment with having to constantly adjust on the saddle like my butt is walking around the surface, I was a seasoned cyclist, 8000+ miles per year for a decade and never had any notable issues but took just over a year off and have just come back and it is obvious something is really off. I had my leg length checked and the right is shorter by about 9mm as the crow flies, also feeling like I am twisted so the my right sit bone is sitting forward. Just going through the motion to see what works, have some shims coming later today. Bike fit is a obvious option but locally they are booked up for weeks, hopefully I can get close before a pro looks at me and then get back to being able to get my hours and mileage up. Looking back it was also why I would love to trail run but hated running on the road, off road you are never on a flat surface and it confirms why I was getting left leg pain on tarmac. Sadly I am finding this out at middle age!!!!...

Thank you. Your videos are very enlightening.

Looking forward to a follow-up to see the progress after 6 months or so. Really enjoyed the before and after job on Abdullah Zeinab!

Great content. Thanks!

I would love to find someone with this level of bike fitting skill in the CT, MA, RI area of the United States. Lots of bike shops that do fittings, but not proper phisio's. As someone with disc damage in my lower spine, it would be amazing to have a fit of this quality/level!

Brilliant--keep this content coming!

That was beautiful to watch Neil. I would be a fun full week project I'd reckon. Old, fat, full of arthritis, dodgy left shoulder from collarbone break, dodgy ankle, dodgy knee and lots of other fun stuff. I'd love to ride more comfortably but I'm just happy to get out and ride when i can.

Great video and great bike fit. Would be nice to see if the changes have worked.

Great work. Thx for sharing. I'd also like to see a follow-up in 12mths.

I assume this was before bay crits and nationals where she had some nice results

I’ve gotten several bike fits. Never felt like I got this level of service. Always feel like I’m gotten a decent fit, but not nearly as comprehensive. Not much has ever changed but stem length and height.

Damn … that is a pretty incredible work over

Love Neill !! Id love a bike fit from him! Bit too far away tho :D

This is brilliant content.

1:14 - " the right arch is higher than the left one" 2:22 - "your right arch is lower than your left" please, can you decide which one is higher/lower? :-) thanks & regards, Mircea

Which method(s) do you recommend to validate id there is a leg length discrepancy? Other than taking a radiography. My friends case, I believe one leg is shorter since when laying down on the back knees bent, just alike the Girl in the video there is a drop, and a scoliosis as well. But on the bike it's impossible to gauge anything wrong. Also when laying down, both legs extended... Both legs look now the same size.

Great job, nice to look. Have a question: why arch is so important? Why it needs to be with preasure? I always thinking about foot like a bride, it works like that isnt it? Wen we walk or run arch never touch the grond its working more like bride, or like spring. So why its need to be supported in cycling?

Nice video. Good to see how G8 fitted. But which saddle and saddle width were prescribed? SQLab 612 Ergowave active 150mm or 160mm? Video thumbnail says +7mm so 143mm to 150mm?

Would love to add some ideas from point of view of a neuro physio, specially regards muscle recruitment in the trunk and looking at the variance in muscle bulk of medialis and gastroc..

maybe first visit to chiro too and then some bikefit (if person never been to chiro). Pro riders possibly go to visit them regularly.

As a long time user of the Sq-Lab saddle I've now swapped to a SMP due to my soft tissue never having gotten properly used to the very localised pressure distribution of the SQ-lab design. First couple hours feel always perfect but especially on multi-day events the tissue over the sitbones just becomes a total mush and agony to ride on. I would be interested to know if other experience the same issues?

Question to Neill. After a series of your videos, I purchased the G8 insoles and can't seem to adjust it. The G8 says to move the arches further forward to get "springiness", but in this video you move arches as far back as possible. Could you explain how to adjust it and what to look for. Any advice would be very helpful. Thank you.

Impressive analysis and fit, wish more bike fitters could provide such a quality fit but it's like the Wild West out there.

Can you please share some data about her height and inseam ? Thanks

Why have a seat post with set back and then push the saddle right forward?

This bike was really easy to assemble kzfaq.infoUgkxMesz3KOGEmwmvyKQfLfrRSUXLFzfVHZA and required very few adjustments out of the box. The wheels did not require any truing/adjustments. The frame had some small scratches, but nothing major.I did replace the seat though - the seat it came with was very uncomfortable. The tires need to be re-inflated every 4-5 days, but this appears to be quite common for the narrow 700x25 tires.Overall, in my opinion, this bike looks and rides like a much more expensive bike.

0:39 when you argue with your wife and she hits you with “You’re just like your father.”

Subscribed! Awesome video…wow ….he’s good

Great video. I was engaged the entire time.

Excellent

Hi, please update how the bike fit affected on her riding. Hopefully all the discomfort was fixed.

My legs are definitely off in where the muscle is building. I have had two knee surgeries and my bad knee is much stronger on the inner quad. How to adjust to activate the outer quad?

This bloke really knows his shit, my only regret is that he's up in QLD. Neill I bet you'll get tons of demand if you 'tour' through Straya!

N, love your vids. I'm about the same sit bone width... Whats the width of the SQLab saddle?

Nice video Neil. I am struggling with my knicks wearing out due to them rubbing on the seat clamp on my Merida Reacto. Is there anything you suggest I should do?

Where can I buy those arch supports? I have the same problem as Alisha... Ok never mind. I found them but they are damn expensive.

A lateral pelvic tilt will present these exact symptoms without there being any physical asymetries in the body. Strengthening the right glute max and left adductor will actually square the pelvis, even out the arches. the leg length shim is suddenly no longer necessary. The shim will act as a crutch and not allow the body to learn to function in the correct muscle pattern. Also the stem is too long.

If I can ask a question: Isnt that bike frame too big and the stem too short for her? Cheers and thank you!

glad you mentioned the bars. looks too wide for her

I’m having an issue with my left quad. I ruptured my right Achilles in 2016. I have been riding in groups for a year and general/serious riding for 3 years. Can you help me determine what is the cause of my cramps. It usually occurs at that 28 mile point on group rides.

Hello. You are doing it wrong with shims. Upper leg length difference should be solved with different crank lengths L to R and no shims. Shims only artificially rise one side and do not change the pedaling dynamics L to R

Great video! Which sqlab saddle model are you using? Is it the 612 active 2.1 ? I am riding the 612 active but the first model, do you reckon the 2.1 is better/improved?

Neill, how would you compensate for a 1cm leg length difference that's in the femur? I'd love to do a fitting with you, but I'm in the US. Thanks for any help and feedback!

Neil is the best. I have a client that I’m going to see if they are ever coming down under. If so…

Pro at Work.

I wonder what was it that made you decide to shorten the reach/stem and drop the height of the handlebar?

7mm!!!!

A shame you live in Australia. I could do with a pro like you in Spain.

Did you change the fore and aft on the cleats?

Could you link to the bolts you are using for the shims? Currently struggling to find a good solution for myself

Wide feet = wide seat bones??? Skeletal question???

Is there anyone like this in Melbourne?

How can someone be a semi-pro?

Alisha should really give chiropractic care a go. It could help to correct her bones and make her body more symmetrical
