Recreational cyclist
Do you ride a few times a week and enjoy a relaxed ride or a nice outing with friends? Even without complaints or major discomfort, a bike fit can be worthwhile. You don't have to wait until something hurts to sit well on your bike. During a bike fit, we tailor your bike position to your body, habits and wishes. Among other things, we look at your saddle height, handlebar position and cleats, so that you sit comfortably and can pedal smoothly. You leave with a bike that suits you better and enjoy every ride even more.
For you, cycling is much more than the occasional ride. You plan your week around your rides, enjoy heading out with the club and look forward to that tough climb or long weekend ride. The more hours you spend on the bike, the more you notice how important a good riding position is. Perhaps you only get pain in your neck, hands or backside after a few hours. Perhaps you have no problems at all, but you wonder whether your current set-up still matches the way you ride. During a bike fit, we take your cycling experience as the starting point: how often you ride, which challenges you look for and what you experience along the way. Dimitri translates that into a well-considered bike position that suits your commitment and ambitions, with attention to any complaints.
Competitive road cyclist, gravel racer, mountain biker, gran fondo rider or ultra-distance cyclist
Whether you are on the start line of a road race, gravel race, mountain bike race, gran fondo or ultra race, you want to be able to rely on your bike and your body. You train with purpose, set goals and look for that extra margin to perform better. Every discipline places different demands on your position. On the road, aerodynamics plays a major role, while on gravel and technical mountain bike courses you also need freedom of movement, stability and control. In a gran fondo or ultra race, it becomes especially important to be able to hold your position for hours on end. Your bike set-up needs to suit the terrain, the distance and the way you ride. During a bike fit, Dimitri looks at your racing ambitions, training load and any complaints you may have. Together you look for the right balance between power transfer, comfort and control, so that you can keep a workable position even when fatigued.
As a triathlete, the race is built around three disciplines. You want to swim smoothly, ride efficiently and start the run with enough energy left. Your bike position plays an important part in that. Whether you are training for a sprint, an Olympic-distance or a long-distance triathlon, an aerodynamic position is only useful if you can sustain it. The right set-up gives you support on your aero bars and room to pedal smoothly and breathe. During a bike fit, Dimitri looks at your race distance, your goals and any complaints you may have. With attention to your saddle position, aero bars and contact points, you work together to find a balance between aerodynamics, comfort and power transfer. This way you build a position that suits your whole race, including the kilometres you still have to run afterwards.
Buying a new road bike is something to look forward to. But which frame size suits you? And how do you choose the right handlebar width, stem length or saddle? There is a lot of choice, and a size chart does not tell the whole story. With a bike fit before you buy, you get a clear picture of the bike geometry and components that suit your body and your preferred position. Dimitri maps out your body measurements, range of movement and cycling goals and translates them into targeted advice for your new bike. This lets you compare models and sizes more effectively and walk into the bike shop with confidence. You choose a bike that suits you and reduce the chance of unnecessary adjustments afterwards.
I am looking for quality cycling shoes or saddles.
