PERFECTING YOUR RIDE POSITION

Why is a fitting important?

Improve Comfort
A good fit improves your comfort in the saddle and reduces pressure on your arms, neck and back.

Boost Power and Efficiency
A good fit boosts your strength in the pedal stroke, making you faster and more efficient.

Protect from Injury
Because of cycling’s repetitive movements, improper alignment can lead to injury. A proper fit helps reduce this risk.

Blacksmith Cycle Bike Fit Process

  1. Typical consultation takes 1.5-2 hours and includes analysis of current geometry / position / riding style / current issues to examine
  2. If a new bike is the goal, discussion on wants, needs, desires, category preferences (tire clearance, etc.), budget, and much more
  3. Either use your current bike to see you on the bike and/or get your on the automated GURU bike fit machine where we examine geometry, body angles and make detailed adjustments as needed
  4. Discussion of new bike options (if a new bike is the goal) or new components to make the fit more comfortable like saddle or bars and stem
  5. CAD drawing is an optional (free) add-on with any new bike purchase, showing your ideal bike geometry, regardless of brand
  6. Basic quote for any new components needed, or additional work that needs to be completed (bar re-wrapping is a free add-on if bar tape is salvageable)
