Bike Fitting

What is Bike fitting?

The Bike Fitting service provides guidance on your ideal cycling position as well as suggesting a frame geometry that will best suit your needs. It is based on the Bikefitting.com system and a number of precise measurements, based on anatomical markers, are taken to provide you with a personalized fit that is specific to your needs.

In addition you will benefit from the expert eye of Paul Mill from Elite Cycling who is a BCF Level II coach and a long time Category I rider. 

Paul also uses the Axiom Reality Trainer and Silicon Coach video analysis softare to give you a detailed break-down of your position and practical and valuable advice regarding bike setup.

Who can benefit from Bike Fitting?

Whether you are a seasoned rider, weekend warrior or daily commuter, the Bike Fitting system will help you be more comfortable on your bike, improve performance and decrease the likelihood of injury. We cater for all levels of rider and give you a personalized service to make sure you get the most out of your riding.

If you are about to purchase a new bike we can help ensure you get the best value for your money and recommend a bike fit in the same way as we would recommend having a pair of running shoes properly fitted. Equally, if you have an existing bike we can help you optimise your position as well as provide advice on the best setup for different riding conditions e.g training versus racing.

You can choose between 3 levels of analysis:

Bronze - A basic fitting service where the results of the measurements are discussed and key points and findings are identified. This is followed up with a written report based  on these findings including key measurements and recomendations. A check of suggested versus actual seat position will also be done during the assessment (approx 45 mins).

Silver - As for the Bronze service but in addition your bike will be put on a special bike calibration jig to precisley compare the suggested versus actual position. Various adjustments can be made, which you can test using the Axiom Reality Trainer (on a stage of the Tour de France if you like!). This allows you to assess the effects of any changes under actual riding conditions. (approx 75mins).

Gold - The Bronze and Silver service with the added benefit of precise real time anaylsis of your position and technique using our Silicon Coach video analysis software. You will recieve a comprehensive report including key screen shots of your position, pedaling technique and overall allignment. This is an in-depth analysis and will provide you with a deep insight into your cycling under lifelike conditions (approx 2 hours).
