A client needed her road bike set up properly before the Cape Town Cycle Tour. We checked her saddle height, reach and cleat position, then sent her off ready to ride.

PROJECT WITH DESCRIPTION EXAMPLE
A hardtail build for a rider training for his first stage race.
Thabo wanted a lighter bike for the Cape Pioneer Trek. We set him on a carbon hardtail to fit his reach.
We fitted faster tyres and checked his suspension sag before his first long ride.
He came back twice as his position settled in.
What we changed
New tyres, a shorter stem and correct sag on the fork.
FAQs
How this can be done for me?
Book a fitting session at our workshop. Bring the bike you ride most and wear your usual kit. We will check your position and adjust saddle height, reach and cleats until it feels right.
How long does it take
A full bike fit takes about an hour. We check your saddle height, reach and cleat position, then send you out for a short test ride to confirm everything feels right.
Porta nec aenean pellentesqu
We fit any bike, not just ones bought from us. Bring your bike in and we will work with what you already have, no matter where it was bought.
Can I book online
Yes, you can book a fitting session through our website or give us a call. We will ask a few questions about your riding so we can prepare before you arrive.
TACITIRS LOBORTIS
We measure leg length and set the saddle to the right height.
BAR REACH
Handlebar height and reach are set so you can breathe easily in the drops.
CLEAT POSITION
Cleats are aligned so your knees track straight on every pedal stroke.
