Upper body position

about 9 minutes Lesson 5 of 6 Section 1 of 8

At a glance

What you'll learn:

  • Why position is different from saddle height and fore/aft: no single right answer
  • The three BFF EZ classifications (Upright, Relaxed, Aggressive) and what each trades off
  • How BFF EZ reads your position from your recording
  • How your goals shape the right position
  • The critical rule: position is the handlebar's job, not the saddle's
  • How to change your position at the cockpit and what to expect after
  • Why the saddle has to be settled before position is evaluated

Before you start: What's your top reason for riding? (Comfort, fitness, commuting, racing, exploring trails.) Hold that in mind. By the end you'll have a candidate position to match.
