Bike fit
Set up for how you ride.
An hour on the jig with you pedalling: commuting, long days or racing, the fit follows the riding. Sample: £120.
The hour
What happens on the jig.
Talk
Where it hurts, how far you ride and what you want from the bike. Ten minutes.
Measure
Leg length, flexibility and foot shape, off the bike.
Ride and adjust
On the jig at your usual effort: saddle height and setback, bar reach and drop, cleats, one change at a time.
Write it down
Every measurement on a card and emailed, so any shop can set the bike up again.
