Bike Fit
A dialed in Bike Fit is paramount. Bicycles need to be fit and adjusted just like golf clubs, running shoes, backpacks, skis and tuxedos. Our professional bike fitters have years of experience and training to assure the best position for your body on your bike. Our fit services are available to all experience levels - recreational, mountain, road, triathlete or special needs - we aspire to connect to the community as a whole. We have performed hundreds of fits over the years and are passionate about our process, fostering a successful and enjoyable ride on an existing or new bike.
BIKE513 fit specialists are Certified by BikeFit.com focusing on the foot/pedal interface with cycling shoes and pedals. The foot/pedal interface is the only part of your body that is 'locked in' when utlizing cycling shoes and clipless pedals. This interface is where the bike fit process begins. The feet are 'locked in' and the foundation of the fit process. Through 5 different adjustments we will align your legs so they track appropriately, providing greater comfort and more power so you can ride longer and stronger.

Testimonials
Geoff, The bike fitting and changes are working very well. 2.5 hrs. with no knee pain – I’m sure in no small part to the subtle changes you made for me. I’m a fan and have recommended you to 2 different friends of mine. Hopefully, my wife will be making an appointment soon for same. Thanks again! Tom Crutchfield Ft. Mitchell, KY |
I can't even begin to tell you what a difference it made. After the adjustments you made I have gone on rides that were 2-3 times longer without the neck and back pain I was having before. It is amazing what a difference it made to have my bike properly fit. Even braking which is something I did not think needed adjusting is much easier after you adjusted the handlebars. I am enjoying riding and feel much safer. I can't thank you enough. Well worth the investment. Helen |
Geoff & Greg, Wanted to let you both know that I road the Cannondale R-2000 for 48 plus miles today......the bike has never felt better !! It's been 8~9 months since I rode any more than 12 miles.....The handlebars and overall fit was excellent ! Shifting is as smooth as silk ! Thanks again for getting the Road Bike back in shape so now it is a pleasure to ride it !! :-) Steve |
I am VERY pleased with the changes! It is so much more comfortable. I think down the road I may want to consider a different seat, but I'd like to live with these changes for a while before making any more. I will definitely recommend you to any cycling acquaintances I come across! Thanks,  Linda |
