Great product for adjusting your bike
BestBikeAdvice is a great way of adjusting your bike to a better position. I've used it for my road bike in preparation for an Ironman and for my MTB. The last time I also used it for a MTB that I build from scratch. In that process I noticed that a few factors are not included in the calculation of the ideal sitting position. Think of the width of the handlebars, which affects the distance between saddle and handlebars. But also factors such as suspension are not included. These are nice additions that make the product just that little bit better and more professional.

Dear Customer, Thank you for your review! We’d like to clarify that our MTB bike fitting tool does take both handlebar width and suspension effects into account when determining your optimal riding position. • Suspension & SAG: During the fitting process, we ask for your front and rear suspension travel. The tool automatically factors in the typical SAG percentage, ensuring that your riding position remains consistent—whether you’re on a hardtail or a full-suspension bike—once your weight is on the bike. • Handlebar Width & Back Sweep: We also ask for the “effective back sweep” of your handlebar, which increases with wider handlebars. This is integrated into our calculations to ensure a proper fit. If you’d like more detailed information, feel free to reach out via our contact form for a direct conversation, as we don’t have your contact details. Looking forward to helping you further!
