What you'll learn in Lesson 1:

  • The three reasons bike fit affects how you ride: pain, efficiency, comfort
  • Why "the right fit" is a range (your fit window), not a single number
  • Why your correct fit is individual to you and what BFF EZ actually checks you against
  • Why your window moves over time and why that isn't a sign you got it wrong the first time
  • The difference between a static fit (at rest) and a dynamic fit (in motion)
  • How BFF EZ does a dynamic fit using your phone

Before you start: Picture your current saddle height. If you had to guess, are you inside your fit window, too high, or too low? Keep your guess in mind. By the end of Lesson 3 you'll have a real answer.
