You can buy Experience! Great Book for Anyone who wants to Improve their Bike Position
Having bought and read this book in the past week I can highly recommend it for anyone who has any bike related pain, may be wants to improve their performance or simply check their bike fit is optimal for their desired goal. If you wanted to do a bike fit from scratch then you could by referencing this book and you don't need any special tools, just a friend's assistance for a few areas. The information is backed up by science, Phil's expert knowledge and experience with the elite and public, all tied together with specific photographic illustrations. In his own words Phil is aware not everyone can afford or wishes to pay for a bike fit, so if that's you, or you just want a reference book then this book is fantastic and you won't be disappointed. Personally, I've had two bike fits and the first was nothing like the contents if this book, hence the reason for the second! Well worth the small price to read and use Phil's experience and knowledge.

A decent updated versikn
Useful additions the benefits of shorter cranks and indoor training set up.A couple of mislabelled photographs that the proof readers missed (or didn’t know were wrong) but otherwise a useful guide to bike position.

Comprehensive detail coupled with user friendly advice
Bought for my bike nut husband who used it to tailor his position on his existing bikes. Particularly useful as he gets older and finds obtaining comfort a moving target. The new sections on indoor cycling are increasingly relevant.

Experience, insight and evidence-based observation
Phil brings fantastic experience and insight to his work. He combines this with sophisticated evidence-based observation to reach his conclusions and recommendations.Added to that, though, is his engaging style. He has great stories to tell, which provides an interesting and engaging backdrop to the theory.

Fantastic book and nice evolution from the original (which I also own). Some really valuable insights and I’m already feeling the difference on the bike.

Crank Length Gem
Some real golden nuggets in here, the crank length one is a real gem. I put this into practice and it worked a treat for me. Phil Burt’s credentials speak for themselves, I’m just glad he put them in a book :)
