Why the 'right' bike fit is a range, not a number

When BFF EZ is enough and when it isn't

BFF EZ on its own is the right tool for:

  • The three core adjustments: saddle height, saddle fore/aft, and upper body position.
  • Most bikes: road, gravel, mountain, commuter, stationary, and even time-trial/aero setups.
  • Fitting and re-checking more than one bike.
  • Self-fitting at home, on your own schedule, without booking a session.

Worth seeing a professional fitter for:

  • Persistent pain that doesn't ease after you've tried changing your fit on your own.
  • Coming back to riding after a significant injury.
  • A unique riding style or body considerations where an experienced, hands-on fitter would know more.
  • A complex or recurring issue you can't pin down on your own.

The rule: Make changes slowly, in small increments. Listen to your body more than the numbers.
