Bike Fitting
Get More Out of Your BikeIt’s hard to overstate how much a proper bike fit will improve your comfort and enjoyment on the bike and off. When you ride in the perfect position, with no niggles, strain or constant movement in the saddle, you experience genuine freedom. Freedom to ride further, faster, more often, more adventurously. And when you're comfier on the bike, you’ll be quicker to recover and less tired off the bike, too.
Our fits run from standard to pro, covering everything from bike sizing to bike saddle fitting and saddle pressure mapping, insole recommendations, and cleat set-up. Uniquely, we can offer wind tunnel testing and Vo2 max testing for athletes looking to make each second count.
While we provide a specialist bike fitting service, we can adjust any kind of bike, no matter what kind of rider you are.
Here at The Bike Tailor, we know how vital a well-fitted bike is, which is why we’re so passionate about providing a holistic bike fitting service that treats the whole you, one that understands where you are now and where you want to get to.
At The Bike Tailor, we use Dartfish bike fitting software. We use it to help us detect the range of measurements needed to adjust your bike and find the best fit. We can also store that info for the next time you come for a bike fitting, to give us a head start.
Some of the areas we use the software for include pressure mapping, power output, pedalling mechanics, and aerodynamic testing (especially when it comes to our wind tunnel testing).
Getting your cleats set up just right is key. Not just key to how you perform but how you keep your body strong and free from injury. There’s a lot of discussion about what the best position is for cleats, but to us it’s simple: you want to make sure that your cleats are set up to suit your body.
We’ll use our know-how and technology to find the best position for you, so you can ride your best ride.
The saddle. The one place you don’t want to be uncomfortable, right? We’ll make sure your whole body is going to be as happy with the ride as you are. With a good bike saddle fitting, we’ll test your flexibility, set it to the optimum saddle height, width and angle.
Your perfect road bike should be comfortable, allow you to ride as far and as fast as you like, and it shouldn’t cause you any injury. A road bike has to do it all. It might take you over smooth tarmac or bumpy country roads, so you – and it – need to be prepared for anything.
A good road bike fit will make the most of your new or existing bike and allow for a pleasurable cycle ride. Get in touch to talk to us about your road bike fitting.
