Cardinal Fit Studio
Become One With Your Bike
A data-driven bike fit can make all the difference when it comes to enjoying your ride. We've gone above-and-beyond to bring you Retül Bike Fitting technology, the most advanced bicycle fitting system available today. We're the only shop in Roanoke, Lynchburg, Charlottesville, and New River Valley to offer this service.
Are numb or tingly hands, knee pain, and saddle discomfort just a part of cycling? Heck no! Thanks to Retul technology we can help fix these issues and provide you with the perfect, custom fit. Other "fit studios" that don't offer this type of technology are really just using guesswork. If you want a true fit, using 3D video and accurate data, then Retul is the only way to go.

Why Is Fitting So Important?
Bike fitting aims to prevent injuries, increase efficiency, improve comfort and performance for all cyclists. Bike fitting is for anyone who cycles, particularly if an overuse injury has occurred, to maximize your enjoyment.
Cyclists who would like to improve their performance can maximize efficiency by making critical adjustments that could be preventing you from riding at your best.

What Is Retül?
Retül uses 3D-motion capture technology to accurately measure every degree of movement and millimeter of distance, providing you (and our trained fitters) with precise data necessary to make the best choices to fit your cycling equipment. No two bodies are the same, which is why this technology is a game changer. Don't let other "fitting studios" deceive you, if they aren't using 3D motion-capture technology, then the decisions they are making to fit your bike are not based on accurate data.
RETUL LIVES BY THREE MAIN DATA POINTS IN FIT THEORY:
- Bike Fits Must Be Dynamic. Most fitting specialists fit riders in a static position. Thanks to motion capture tech, Retül can record your positions while in motion, therefore creating the most realistic picture of the your actual pedal strokes and body positions when on the road or trail.
- Measurements Must Be Accurate. Before Retül, measurements were subject to human error and devastatingly inaccurate. Even slight inaccuracies can drastically change the rider's feel. The Retül system is accurate within less than a millimeter, creating true objective data.
- Biomechanics Are Best Assessed Three-Dimensionally. Again, without Retül, traditional bike fitters had to rely on two-dimensional video making it impossible to connect how all sides of the body's movements work together. The 3D motion sensor from Retül simultaneously gathers data on multiple angles.
What Happens During a Retül Fit?
Increased Comfort
No matter your level of riding, comfort is crucial for sustaining time spent on the bike.
Injury Prevention
The correct position keeps your body aligned on the bike, helping to prevent injuries.
Better Performance
An optimal position not only increases comfort—it maximizes both power and endurance.
