The Bike Fitting Mega-Thread

I am seeing a trend on this thread, people are struggling with hip rotation for lower or more aggressive positions. I also feel like there is a lot of saddle heights that are too high.

This is just a quick read on hip rotation;

This is very important for riders wanting to get “aggressive” and until you “figure” out how to do this it is difficult to ride aggressively comfortably. It is widely debated that hip rotation is “learned” or it is a simple as finding the “right” saddle/angle.

I am the former, I never could learn the rotation and then one day after trying 10’s of 20’s saddles I found one that boom let me rotate. Remember you might be comfortable on your saddle, but that does not necessarily mean its right for you. My biggest help was a retul fitter that literally put saddles under me haha.

When you can rotate better, then you can dial in your hood reach better etc.
