Cycling Comfort Course

Want to make your bike rides more comfortable? Do you ride a road or gravel bike and wish it had more compliance, so you’d feel less tired and beaten up?

I’m Krzysztof Wierzbicki, and I run the ComfortLab at CYCLINGABOUT.com (formerly at gravelbikes.cc). I am also an owner of a finding.best project, where I seek truly meaningful reviews and conduct my own scientific test to find the best product available.

For the past five years, I’ve been testing, comparing, and reviewing bikes and bike parts with a focus on comfort. I wanted these tests to be objective, so I started measuring vibrations using a Bluetooth sensor and a vibration analysis app. Along the way, I discovered the best comfort-oriented bikes and components, and I’ve learned how to make my rides much more enjoyable (more about my testing methodology you will find here).

Now, I want to share all of that knowledge with you. In this course, you’ll get clear recommendations and my top picks for comfort-enhancing bike parts. More importantly, you’ll learn how to:

• Choose the best tire and optimal air pressure for comfort
• Stay seated comfortably, even on bumpy roads, with a well-chosen suspension seatpost
• Reduce hand and upper body fatigue using a suspension stem
• Select the best handlebars and bar tape for comfort
• Find a saddle that suits your needs
• Decide if a suspension fork is necessary for true comfort

I’ll also share bike fitting tips and details about my benchmark bike, including the parts I use and why.

Although the course primarily focuses on road and gravel bikes, many of the tips I offer are applicable to other types of bikes as well.

Your journey to much more comfortable rides begins today!
