Probably one of the shortest but most comprehensive videos on the subject. I feel confident doing this myself now. Thank you!!!

This is the least technical video about this topic I’ve watched on KZread, however I’ve found it’s the most useful haha

I just got my new Trek FX-4 and this video helped tremendously.

This video is so informative 👏 👌 🙌 So useful, I got a bike yesterday and never ever have I ride a bike. At 37. So happy right now

Bro same exact bike, first trail bike and I was new so the worker suggested the size I got (I think L) and I said "I can't even touch the ground" he was like yeah dunny

Thanks for the help. My saddle height was too low and my thighs were f***ed up

Very informative n useful tips for bike newbies like me. Thank you.

Shortest and best explanation +1 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

The only bad thing is that for city riding its better to have more of the feet in contact with the ground. Really helps to minimize injuries if fall for any reason (except being hit).

Great video. Thanks.

My bike is probably a good height but I can’t really touch the ground unless I go very high on my toes

Thanks for showing me this I had my foot flat on the ground not my tippy toes

Thanks

Agree one more the size of your bike in accordance with your height

When is the new fuel ex coming out

Can someone help me the bike I got doesn’t have any bolt to tighten where the seat post goes to the bike so I can’t tighten it

Ty🙏

You can cut standard seatposts if the saddle needs to go lower than what the post allows!

Yes, gloves can help absorb vibrations and in return help the wrists

My only concern is will the seatpost pierce through the saddle one day and bugger me?

just make it perfectly level and make small adjustments based on your comfort while riding.

If you have a creak coming from your seatpost, try removing the post and applying assembly grease to the seat tube!

@@trekbikes hi i didn't have any grease as i am new to cycling. I took it into my local Trek dealer and they couldn't solve the issue. So I left the bike with them to identify the sound and they found something wrong with the rear wheel and replaced it under warranty. Bike is barely 2 months old and surprised something went wrong already considering I keep this bike in mint condition.

Hex keys are not specialized tools. Most ikea furniture comes with a 4mm hex key. You most likely have one laying around in a drawer somewhere. Torque wrenches are a little less common but still a really cheap easy to find hand tool.

This is useless, the seat is still stuck
