Every cyclist looks for the optimal position
on their bicycle which, until now, has been determined by a number of
"rules of thumb" and instinctive feeling. While all very nice, these
do not respond to the demands of a highly technical modern bicycle. For the job
to be done correctly, a bicycle should fit as if made-to-measure.
To ensure that you are fitted correctly fitted we have invested in a Bike Fitting System from www.bikefitting.com

We
believe an essential part of buying a new bike
is getting the correct sizie
and fit. Get it right and you
will be free from backache and knee pain, you will be able to ride faster
and further. The fitting service will take approximately two hours.
