I'd like some feedback on my bike fit
I started cycling 2 years ago after having health and heart problems. I started with a hardtail MTB, and now I ride a road bike. I've gone from 101 kg to 83 kg, and the health problems have pretty much disappeared :) but I'm still struggling to get rid of the pain. I rode the 315 km Vätternrundan and experienced neck pain, numb hands, and soft tissue discomfort. This video was taken after the Vätternrundan, where I raised the saddle by 1 cm and moved it 1 cm further back. My measurements and bike setup: Height: 187 cm Saddle height: 785 mm 235 mm from the center of the bottom bracket to the center of the saddle 110 mm stem 420 mm handlebars 165 mm crank arms Orbea Orca size 57 Do you see anything drastic that I should perhaps be thinking about? I've tried two rides since then, but I still get mild numbness in my hands and neck pain, although I suspect I haven't fully recovered from the 315 km ride yet :)

I’m 183cm, on a 56cm bike, 172.5 cranks My saddle height was similar to yours after my first bike fit, stem was I think 110 as well. My only issue was saddle comfort. After seeing Dan, stem is 90, saddle height around 750”ish now.
