At Cynergy Cycles we understand there is more to having a great cycling experience than just having a bike. You know all those tired clichés about bicycle and rider becoming one? There is a reason why people say that. Nothing feels or rides like a properly fit bicycle. Every movement you make feels as if it contributes to sending the bike down the road. You lean—it turns, you pedal—it moves. And while you may want your jeans to fit baggy, nobody wants a baggy glove. You want a bicycle to fit you just like your gloves do.
With your bicycle fitted to you, you’ll ride more efficiently, going farther with less effort. A properly fit bike handles better, giving you greater confidence and more deliberate maneuverability.
Nothing Else Like It
Our fitting system was developed by Specialized with the help of famed bicycle physiologist Andy Pruitt of the Boulder Center for Sports Medicine. Pruitt is one of the foremost experts on bicycle fit in the world and every fitting we perform calls upon his expertise. Fittings are grounded in principles of anatomy and study your flexibility to determine the best fit for you.
Most fits only examine a rider in profile, without considering leg alignment or orthotic support. Our fitting system takes the needs of each leg into account, resulting in what we call a 3D fit. We’re so dedicated to making sure our customers are properly fit to their bicycles that we established a fit station in our store for the dozens of fittings we perform each week.
Your Session
Fittings begin with a conversation; we talk with you about existing aches and pains, previous discomfort on the bike and riding goals. We learn about your flexibility and then begin the process of adjusting the bicycle to your particular needs.
Start to finish, a fitting can take two hours and result in a dozen changes to your bicycle. It’s not uncommon for us to have someone report that they feel stronger following a fitting; an incorrect saddle position can rob you of power. Our job is to make sure that all your strength goes to the pedals when you need it. Come in and talk with one of our fit techs to see how we can improve your cycling. |
