Expert Bike Setup

Service Description

To ensure optimum comfort on the bike, a proper fit is "a must". Having a proper setup will ensure that you are more comfortable on your bike and will you to perform at your best. During this session we measure: - Intake assessment (muscle balance and flexibility assessment) - Foot tilt, - Arch and foot analyses, - Expert cleat fit - Laser alignment (knee and shoe), - Dynamic 3D analysis - bi-lateral recording - Saddle pressure mapping analysis, - Camera recordings and visuals (comparing before and after) to measure knee/hip/shoulder angles. - Detailed report and feedback, - Strength and flexibility exercises will be added to the report From the measurements, we can assist on advising on correct stem length, handlebar width, bike size. If you wish to add a shoe fitting to your bike fit - please indicate this in the comments section, when making a booking * For our clients, younger than 16, we understand that you are still growing and the setup will need to change as you grow. We thus offer all our clients (younger than 16) the service to come back every 3 to 6 months for an adjustment (for €50)

What elements does bike-fitting consist of?

For all bike-fitting sessions we do the following: Intake interview where discuss expectations and any concerns Body assessment - where we determine: muscle balance, flexibility, mobility, identification of posture disorders, bending ability of individual body parts. Measurement of foot pressure as well as foot tilt (arch and foot analyses). Optimal position: selection of the height of the saddle and handlebars, stem parameters, retraction of the saddle, angle of the saddle, angle of the handlebars and cockpit, length of the bike. Detailed analyzes of foot support in terms of three-dimensional movement (wedges, spacers, variable q-factor, activation or support of the foot, de-rotation of the trunk, change of the support plane, passive or active compensation of asymmetry.) Video record of before-after position and change analysis. Tensometric measurements of pressure on the saddle, pelvic oscillation, recording pressure in all positions of the hands on the handlebars. Measurement of the distribution of the center of gravity of the body on the bike. A detailed feedback report from the entire bikefitting session - we send it by e-mail. A basic set of exercises to improve functional symmetry and stretch, physiotherapy recommendations - if necessary. Assembly of bicycle components on site: stems, spacers, saddle, seatposts, etc.
Will you adjust my bike during the session or will you only give the feedback ?

During the session , we will assemble any necessary bicycle components on site: stems, spacers, saddle, seatposts, etc. and where adjustment of height or angles is required, we will do it as part of the session.

What does the Saddle Pressure Mapping service consist of?

The service starts with a comprehensive assessment of the client's current saddle and bike setup. During this assessment, I will gather important data on the client's cycling position, anatomical measurements, and riding style. This information is then used to create a customized pressure mapping protocol tailored to the client's specific needs. Next, the client saddle is fitted with specialized pressure sensor sleeve. These sensors are capable of measuring the pressure distribution across the saddle and provide real-time feedback to the bike fitter. Using this data, the bike fitter can make informed recommendations on saddle adjustments or changes, as well as, saddle type that will optimize the client's pressure distribution and improve overall comfort and performance on the bike. The bike fitter may also provide advice on other areas of the bike setup, such as handlebar position or pedal alignment, that can affect saddle pressure distribution. The bike fitter can also provide demo saddles to fit that allows the client to feel the difference. The Saddle Pressure Mapping Service provides numerous benefits for cyclists, including reduced discomfort and fatigue, improved performance, and decreased risk of injury. With the service, cyclists can ride longer, harder, and with greater confidence, knowing that their bike setup is optimized for their unique needs.
Why would I need a bike sizing?

Our bike sizing services are aimed at our clients that are on the market to buy a new bike and want to make sure they buy the right bike and size. We advise you on brands, sizes based on your measurements.
