Neill Stanbury explains his repeatable method for measuring saddle height so it can be transferred accurately between bikes. Because cycling saddles are naturally curved, finding a consistent measurement point can be tricky. By using a steel rule and measuring through the saddle rails, Neill removes the guesswork and ensures reliable, repeatable results every time.

Professional bike fitter Neill Stanbury explains why Stuart needed a first ray post added to his cycling sole. This helped stabilise his foot and improve power transfer. By lifting the first ray, this helped Stuart maintain a more neutral and stable foot position through the pedal stroke, reducing unwanted movement and maximising efficiency on the bike.

Neill Stanbury has been putting the Ryet Aircode through its paces in the fit studio — and it’s impressing. Think Pro Stealth performance without the sky-high price tag.

Neill Stanbury explains why the UCI’s new minimum handlebar width rule is not just impractical. it’s outright unfair, especially for smaller riders. With the new regulation, many of them will be forced to run handlebars that are wider than what their bodies and biomechanics actually require, compromising comfort, fit, and performance just to meet a new standard.
