We've talked about why we love the bicycle as a tool for building fitness, but it can be downright painful if your bike doesn't fit you properly.

Winston has fit hundreds of people on their bikes to alleviate pain and improve performance.

In this episode, we talk about tips for improving the fit of your bike and fixing common problems like numb crotch and hands, sore neck and shoulders, and knee pain.
