It’s so common for riders to think that they need to be a professional athlete to benefit from a bike fit. This couldn’t be further from the truth. 99.9% of our bike fits are done with amateur riders. Anyone who values their riding and rides their bike regularly can benefit from a fit. You make around 10,000 pedal strokes an hour. Would you rather repeat 10,000 good pedal strokes, or 10,000 poor ones? No brainer right?

We are different. Our whole fitting ethos centres around providing as much knowledge as we can to our riders, so you can truly understand why certain choices will work for you and others won’t. The more you know, the better decisions you can make, for you! There is no ‘secret sauce’ we are hiding, just honest, education and guidance. Our track record backs this up!

Cycling is a low impact, repetitive sport, conducted upon the most efficient form of transport known to man. This means you can get away with repeating poor movement patterns for years and your body will easily find a way to absorb that additional poor movement stress. Some bodies are better at dealing with that additional stress than others. But the more stress you load onto your body, at some point it is going to catch up with you. Trust me, I’ve been there myself and part of the reason why I became a bike fitter. The other constant that you should be aware of is that our bodies change. You body is not the same as it was 5 years ago! Bike positions should change to match your body, your mobility, your abilities and your current riding goals. If you need help figuring this out, seek advice from an expert, come get a bike fit.

We know that our processes and methods work because it has been proven across 1000s of cyclists. However it does take two to tango when it comes to bike fit. Good results can only be achieved if both fitter and rider are willing to work at a problem and explore all potential solutions together. This is why we describe our fit process as a partnership. Bike fitting is not a simple magic bullet or a prescription. But if you’re willing to be open minded, come with a learning mindset, work hard and take control of your fit, great things can happen!

How much does your bike cost? How much do your wheels cost? How much does your cycling wardrobe cost? Yes, cycling is an expense, but a bike fit is the best value investment you can make for your long term health and riding. It will last you years, it will enable you to travel thousands of kilometres, it will help you become stronger, fitter and stave off injuries. And you can transfer it from bike to bike. Bike fitting is not sexy and it is not easy. It requires time, hard work and commitment. But the rewards are ten-fold. Remember, nothing really worth doing is easy!
