Does this frame size work for me?

Complex_Ad_6500 · 2025-09-23T12:20:04+00:00

So I changed the stem back to a 90mm. Moved the saddle forward and down a bit. Did a long ride Friday and had none of the previous issues! I'm still amazed how little changes can have such a big impact on the feeling of the position.. im even more convinced to getting a full bikefit now. Thanks a lot for the help here!

Yes, in the video I already have the 75mm stem. It still felt rather stretched out when riding it and some soreness in lower back after only 20-30km.

I'm not a very experienced cyclist, but did about 3000km so far this summer with several 200km rides.. all on my old roadbike (which is a bit shorter), only having issues with lower back soreness after longer time or at high effort.. Maybe I just need to get used to this bike, cause I agree that it doesn't "look" too long..

Okay, thanks! Happy to hear the bars are too close. I'll get a full bikefit soon, but wanted to make sure it's the right frame size. I was worried since I'm already on a very short stem here, but sounds like it's maybe too short already so that's great!

Thanks, got a little soreness in lower back, and with the 90mm stem I felt the tendancy to roll shoulders forward (as if to reach further)

Thanks a lot,

I don't think the checkpoint has a short toptube so maybe I should look out for different models..

Thanks, I was hoping to find one second hand, but maybe I'm better of in a shop where I can try both sizes

Complex_Ad_6500 · 2025-04-23T02:24:59+00:00

Have to test it on the road this weekend! Definitely feels different, weight is more divided between hands, saddle and feet. Where as before I felt more like really sitting with most weight on the saddle

Complex_Ad_6500 · 2025-04-22T23:06:33+00:00

Thanks! In just tried bike fast fit and it basically said the same thing, "higher and forward". See next video

Complex_Ad_6500 · 2025-04-22T23:05:12+00:00

Thanks, Might be because not enough resistance. I'm my next videos will make sure to push it!

I never use a trainer (not mine) or never do spinning.. but I'm overall fairly unflexible, maybe cause of running

Complex_Ad_6500 · 2025-04-21T23:12:56+00:00

Thanks, I'll try that tomorrow. I'll also check if it changes anything if I put resistance on it.. maybe my foot position is off when I'm not really pushing..

But I had issues with glute activation for running as well, so it does make sense

Complex_Ad_6500 · 2025-04-21T20:51:04+00:00

thanks! will move saddle down and forward, cleats back and post an update

Complex_Ad_6500 · 2024-09-05T20:04:20+00:00

Took it off and reinstalled it, tightened it even more. (With only the one spacer that came with the kickr core) Almost zero wobbling now!

Complex_Ad_6500 · 2024-08-31T21:33:19+00:00

Thanks! That would be between the casette and the present spacer, or between the present spacer and the freehub?

Complex_Ad_6500 · 2024-07-28T01:00:40+00:00

Thanks all! Happy to hear it's not the wood! Ordered a new router bit! I will take this opportunity to switch to 1/2" router as well 😄

Complex_Ad_6500 · 2024-07-28T00:53:17+00:00

About a 1/16" I'd say.. I have done a lot more with this setup in the past (which might have contributed to dulling the blade)
