Bike Fits are Back!
At Pedal Revolution, we pride ourselves on offering our customers the best service possible. After a considered review of Precision Fit data from the last 10 years, we are pleased to announce the re-launch of our Precision Fit Studio Services!
One of the most common misconceptions we hear is that bike-fitting is only for professional or elite level cyclists.
A Precision Fit will ensure that you are riding as effectively as possible, whilst increasing efficiency and greatly reducing the risk of injury, pain and discomfort. Put simply, you can ride faster, longer or more frequently without the discomfort!
Our bike-fitting studio now offers two levels of service;
Full Precision Fit – Available with our Senior Precision Fit Specialist Kate
Standard Fit – Available with either Kate or our Precision Fit Technician, Matt
Full details of both services are listed below, along with guidance to assist you in deciding on which service is suitable for your individual needs.
If you would like to discuss your bike-fitting needs in more detail, please get in touch so our qualified Precision Fit Studio Team can help you get more miles out of your ride by optimising your ride position.
Please note appointments will need to be paid for at time of booking.
Full Precision Fit
The misconception with bike-fitting is that it is for ‘serious’ or professional cyclists… WRONG!
The Full Precision Fit is the bike-fit for any rider who is invested in improving their comfort, performance, or efficiency, or for any rider who suffers from any on-the-bike issues/discomfort.
Alternatively, if the rider has any kind of existing or historical injury or ailment such as strains, sprains, ruptures, fractures, breaks or chronic issues where a medical professional or therapist has been involved, the Full Precision Fit is the bike-fitting service required for them.
The Full Precision Fit service is tailored to the individual by offering a full postural analysis and physical assessment.
This detailed understanding of the rider’s physical condition enables the Precision Fit Specialist to refine the ride position to suit the unique needs of the rider. Enabling you to ride further, faster or more frequently without the discomfort.
This is achieved by combining over 10 years of bike-fitting experience, a deep understanding of cycling anatomy and utilising motion capture technology.
