  • So I got a bike fit from Tony Corke via Cloud9Cycles and the attached fit was the result. It kinda means that I have to clear out my stable and almost start again as all my bikes are too big which although nice to have projects and the prospect of genuinely fitted rides is a little annoying as I love my bikes. Anyway, I am still trying to get my head round all these measurements and what stack heights etc mean instead of my previous attitude which was to bodge and ride.

    Of course I'm searching too but can anyone look at my measurements and recommend a good road bike to replace my beloved Look KG381 with?

  • Yeah I asked about that as it seemed odd but he said that any frame smaller would be too small and a short stem wouldn't be too much of an issue. He seemed to be of the opinion that stem length was overrated over other issues although it obviously makes the bike a bit more twitchy

  • Yeah that is suspect. I'm a small person and was told to try to get bikes that work for me using a 90mm stem cos of handling or something. But what do I know.

    @punkture - But if you love your bikes and you're getting on with them why get rid of them?
