THE BENEFITS OF BIKE FIT
Bike Fit is for Everyone
A good bike fit will improve comfort, reduce your risk of injury, and maximize performance. Our bike fitters perform a complete physical assessment and use Retül Bike Fit technology to provide the most precise bike fit services available.
Retül allows us to take dynamic measurements while you pedal--compared to traditional manual bike fit methods that use measurements taken from a static position. By taking accurate measurements while you ride, we can make precise adjustments to improve comfort and performance. Combined with a thorough physical assessment, this allows us to get to the root cause of your issues quickly and eliminates guesswork.
Increase Comfort
Riding your bike should not hurt. Hand pain, back pain, neck pain, foot pain, and saddle pain are not part of riding. There are multiple factors that can cause comfort issues when riding. Often, these factors can be counter intuitive and difficult to pinpoint on your own.
During a Retul fit, your fitter uses information collected during a physical assessment, precise measurements, and proven data to get to the root of your issue. This allows us to make the adjustments tailored for your body and range of motion so you can be comfortable on your bike.
Prevent Injuries
A position that keeps your body optimally aligned and pain-free on the bike can help prevent injuries. Everyone is different, so that position will vary from rider to rider. We perform an in-depth physical assessment to understand your unique needs and how to best support you on your bike. 3D tracking lets us assess your knee, foot, and hip alignment through your entire pedal stroke to optimize alignment based on these needs. We make adjustments based on your physical assessment and 3D measurements takes while you pedal to find an optimal position that is tailored for you.
Improve Performance
Retul’s digital measurements and our fitter’s physical assessment allow us to fine tune items such as saddle height and set-back for optimal power transfer based on where force is being applied to the pedals and in what position muscles can work the most effectively. 3D tracking lets us assess your knee, foot, and hip alignment through your entire pedal stroke to maximize efficiency, and we can work to balance aero dynamics and comfort for the most optimal position for you.
Learn About Your Body and Position
A bike fit is also an opportunity for you to learn about your own body including flexibility, stability, skeletal structure, range of motion, and how it can affect your comfort and performance.
