Bike Fit with John Howard

Since the season is rapidly approaching, I thought some of you might be interested in Bike Fit. I attended Bike Camp last year in San Diego with John Howard. For those that don't know, John is a famous American racer from the 70's, he has held numerous records, an Olympian, RAAM rider, Ironman, etc... He now works with cyclist in Southern CA.

The video is long and broken up into 5 parts. John knows his biomechanics, and his knowledge base and experience is amazing. Sorry for the video/audio quality, but it's the best my digital camera could do. Lots of details and he provides a solid foundation for understand fit.

I also recommend anyone living within a 1/2 days drive, go to John for a fit. It's not cheap, but he really knows how to maximize performance and comfort. Cyclist from all over the country fly to SoCal for professional fittings, so if you live there take advantage.

Lastly he is an interesting guy, and a unique individual so take it for what it is worth. His auto-biography is also available for those interested:

Thanks for the videos! I'll be watching them.

For anyone in Oregon who needs a bike fit, I *highly* recommend Michael Sylvester in Portland. http://bicyclefittingservices.com/
