Sometimes I am just not sure what to say



I recently asked a bike fitter if he used the FFMD (Fore Foot Measuring Device)


Here is the reply

"I did consider using the FFMD but believe it is too accurate for my needs."

  2. I agree that Bikefit is an art. An art that can use mediums such as science and special tools (such as the FFMD and others) to reach a higher form.

  4. All good points. From what I have seen, and as Andrew has said, I find that either a person is lazy about accuracy. Or they do not have a full understanding of why a tool is important and meaningful. It sounds like this person might have the "good enough" approach.
    Love the Blog.
