Sizing Guidelines

If your bike is uncomfortable, if your back, neck or shoulders are driving you crazy with pain, if your hands are going numb, a stem may just fix it all. Bike fitting is a mix between science and art.

Trust what your body is telling you. You can periodically change your riding posture to accommodate your riding style and / or your fitness.

Stems are a great and inexpensive way to modify your fit. They’re inexpensive and there are 100’s of ways to configure them. Don’t base your comfort on what you believe should be true. For example, many cyclists believe they should sit higher in the saddle to relieve lower back pain. However, the pain gets worse and, with more weight in the posterior, the bottom hurts now too. Road bikes can be the most ergonomic and efficient way to get around, but, if it hurts, it can be a nightmare.

A good, simple rule of thumb is to try to displace your body weight evenly throughout the 5 contact points on your bike, 2 hands, 2 feet and one rear end. Too many cyclists emphasize weight to the rear end. This adds to lower back pain and neck. Try lowering your bars or lengthening your stem.
