We are still happy to help with any questions or advice in regards to fit & comfort. Please give us a call at or store or send us an email.

We ensure every customer is properly sized to every bike we sell.

For performance road bike purchases, we will include an on the bike fit.

A proper fit is essential to your comfort and performance on your bike.

Bike fitting is an optimizing process focused on pain-free riding. 
Fitting to your individual riding characteristics is the key to producing comfortable power. If you are not comfortable, you can not produce power optimally. Fit must address body size, proportional differences, riding style, muscle imbalances, back & neck pain, saddle soreness, and above all flexibility. As result, bike fitting is often an ongoing process as you become more accustomed to your bike, more physically fit or possibly desire a more aerodynamic position. Our fit service does not end after you are out the door with your first fit. We often have customers return for tweaks to your fit once you have some mileage on your new ride position.
 
Every rider is unique. 
The fit for every rider is different and the ultimate goal is pain-free.  Body conditioning, flexibility and medical history are all essential considerations in ensuring a comfortable ride. So It is not appropriate to adjust your bicycle by just following a formal procedure without consideration of physical differences, limitations and needs. Knowing when and how to make constructive changes takes analysis & experience.

Fitting is done by appointment only. Please call or email us to schedule an appointment.

The full cost of our Performance Fit service will be credited towards the purchase of any road bike within 30 days of the paid fit.
