Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a bike fit take?
A basic fit takes about 1 hour. A comprehensive fit takes 1.5–2 hours. Advanced fits with motion capture can take 2–3 hours.
Do I need to bring my bike?
Yes. The fit is done on your actual bike, mounted on a trainer. This gives the most accurate results for your specific setup.
What should I wear?
Wear your normal cycling kit — bib shorts, jersey, and cycling shoes. The fitter needs to see how you sit on the bike in your usual gear.
How often should I get a bike fit?
Once is usually enough, unless you change bikes, have a significant injury, or develop new pain. Many riders get a follow-up adjustment after 4–6 weeks of riding in their new position.
Can a bike fit fix my knee pain?
In most cases, yes. Knee pain is the most common reason people seek a bike fit, and it’s usually resolved by adjusting saddle height and cleat position.
I’m a beginner — do I need a bike fit?
A basic fit is highly recommended even for beginners. Starting with a correct position prevents bad habits and injury. It’s cheaper to fit early than to fix problems later.
What if I ride multiple bikes?
You can get fitted on each bike separately, or have the fitter transfer your optimal position across bikes. Most fitters offer a discount for additional bikes.
Is a bike fit worth it for MTB?
Absolutely. Mountain bikers benefit from optimized saddle height, handlebar position, and suspension setup. It improves both comfort and control on the trail.
