What To Expect

Your bike fit is personalized to you and your goals and generally takes a solid 3 hours, sometimes a bit longer. Complicated saddle selection or cleat placement can generally increase the time a fit takes. As you and your bike are methodically dialed in to the ideal position, you will learn the relevance of each change and how it affects the way you sit on your bike, handle your bike, and apply power over the duration of your ride.

Marty uses the science and methodology of the Serrotta International Cycling Institute (SICI), and knowledge of anatomy and kinesiology (the study of human movement) learned through his practice as a Physical Therapist to achieve your goals.

The ideal time to get a bike fit is well ahead of the riding season or your target event. This will give your body ample time to adapt to any change in position as well as obtain and install any parts which may be needed to achieve your riding position. Subsequent changes to equipment such as a new saddle, shoes, handlebar, or pedal system may require a Fit Check session to assess for changes to bike dimensions, body postures, or new movement patterns which can occur with new equipment.

To replicate your normal riding position please bring your bike, shoes, riding shorts and jersey. Clean cleats clear of debris and functioning bolts will also make the process more efficient.

Upon completing your Personalized Fit, you will receive a copy of all fit data containing the details of your bike fit and recommendations to achieve your ideal fit. Some parts can be installed in the office and PT Bike Fit will gladly work with your preferred bike shop to help you get any parts needed.

Your bike fit includes a follow up appointment to ensure your bike fit is right for you.
