BIKE SIZING
USING THE MANUFACTURER'S GEOMETRY CHARTS, WE ADJUST OUR SIZE CYCLE IN OUR FIT STUDIO SO THAT IT ACCURATELY REFLECTS THE MEASUREMENTS AND GEOMETRY OF THE FRAME AND SPECIFIED EQUIPMENT THAT WOULD BE SENT FROM THE MANUFACTURER. WE THEN DETERMINE IF THE RESULTING CHANGES TO THE SIZE CYCLE FIT YOU CORRECTLY. DURING THIS PROCESS WE CAN EASILY COMPARE AND EVALUATE DIFFERENT FRAMES AND FRAME SIZES. YOUR INPUT DURING THIS PROCESS IS IMPORTANT AND WILL BE SOLICITED THROUGHOUT THE BIKE SIZING PROCESS.
PROFESSIONAL BIKE FIT (OUR MOST POPULAR OPTION)
WE WORK WITH YOU TO ASSESS YOUR HEALTH, MOBILITY AND CYCLING GOALS. WE ADJUST YOUR PEDALS, CLEATS, AND SHOES AND THEN EVALUATE YOUR KNEE ALIGNMENT AND RANGE OF MOTION. NEXT, WE ADJUST THE POSITION OF YOUR SADDLE AND COCKPIT (ROAD, OFF-ROAD), INCLUDING THE POSITIONING OF THE AERO, BASE BARS AND ARMRESTS (TRI). AT THE END OF THE FIT YOU WILL RECEIVE A FULL REPORT THAT INCLUDES CORRECT COMPONENT SIZES, CORRECT POSITION AND POSTURE, AND BICYCLE X|Y COORDINATES.
BIKE SIZING PLUS PROFESSIONAL BIKE FIT
WE PERFORM THE SAME BIKE SIZING SERVICE AS DESCRIBED ABOVE FOLLOWED BY A FULL BIKE FITTING. THIS PACKAGE IS IDEAL FOR RIDERS THAT DO NOT HAVE THEIR BIKE YET BUT WANT TO ENSURE THAT (1) THE FRAME IS THE CORRECT SIZE, AND, (2) WANT TO ORDER THE CORRECT COMPONENT SIZES. THIS COMBINES THE FULL SERVICES OF BIKE SIZING AND A PROFESSIONAL BIKE FIT
REMOTE PELOTON / SCHWINN / NORDIC TRACK / SPIN BIKE CYCLE FIT
WE RECEIVE REQUESTS TO WORK WITH MANY CLIENTS TO SET THEIR 'SPIN' BIKES CORRECTLY. MANY OF THESE CYCLISTS SAY THAT IT IS NOT FUN TO TRAIN IN PAIN. THE REMOTE PELOTON BIKE FIT IS THE SAME AS OUR PROFESSIONAL REMOTE FITTING BUT USES OUR PROPRIETARY PROFESSIONAL FIT PROCESS. THIS FIT FOCUSES ON CLEAT ANALYSES, SADDLE ANALYSES, HANDLEBAR PLACEMENT, AND KNEE POSITIONS THROUGHOUT THE PEDAL STROKE. OUR ANALYSES AND CORRECTIONS SOLVE THE VAST MAJORITY OF THE ISSUES FACED BY RIDERS OF STATIONARY BIKES INCLUDING KNEE, BACK, AND SHOULDER PAIN.
REMOTE BIKE FIT
THE SAME AS THE PROFESSIONAL BIKE FIT DESCRIBED ABOVE BUT THE FIT IS COMPLETED USING ZOOM. THIS BIKE FIT IS PERFECT FOR THOSE THAT LIVE FAR AWAY FROM OREGON.
CLEAT FIT
DURING YOUR CLEAT FIT WE WILL INSTALL AND SET UP YOUR CLEATS AND MAKE SHOE AND INSOLE RECOMMENDATIONS. WE WILL VERIFY THE X|Y POSITION AND ROTATION OF YOUR CLEATS ARE CORRECT. IF NEEDED, WE WILL RECOMMEND CLEATS WITH DIFFERENT FLOAT, AND MEASURE AND DISCUSS SHIMS AND WEDGES. THIS FIT DOES NOT INCLUDE ANY BIKE SIZING OR BIKE FITTING.
FINALLY, I CAN RIDE LONG CLIMBS PAIN-FREE!
Skot came to see us to see if we could help alleviate the pain he was experiencing in his lower back on longer rides. During the summer, Skot rides up to 10 hours daily and has to get off the bike to stretch every half hour on long rides. He also said his toes would go numb. After a 4-hour session with Skot, here is what he has to say ...
"Hello from Crater Lake. Had 2 days of good road bike climbing. Shorter climbs yesterday and I felt great! Longer day today - no issues with my back." "Stayed in the saddle the whole time - standing only because I was tired of sitting, not because my back was hurting. THANKS again - you and Sue figured it out! I am now doing LONG climbs pain-free!!"

GREAT BIKE FITTING COURSE!
"The team at Bike Fitness Coaching was wonderful. I greatly enjoyed their intermediate-level bike fitting course. I have a background in physical therapy and was concerned that I wouldn't be able to catch up on learning the mechanical aspect of bike fitting. Rick was gracious and patient with me as I sharpened my skills. By the end of the course, I became confident in my bike fitting skills and adjusting to the different aspects of a bicycle. I would recommend this course to anyone, especially physical therapists!"

BEST BIKE FIT I EVER HAD!
I had a fantastic bike fit experience with Rick. He quickly identified the issues with my previous bike fit, fixed them, and explained why he was making certain changes and the importance of them. He is calm, patient, and has a wealth of information; he is truly an expert bike fitter and a very experienced rider himself. After our fit, I went for my usual 25-mile Saturday bike ride and shaved a whole 10 minutes off my time! I knew exactly why I was riding faster since he had explained the changes he made and why they would help -- plus my bike felt way better to ride too! This was worth every penny, and I highly recommend it, no matter what your background or experience with biking is.
Things changed to make it right, including getting the right length crankarms, a new saddle, and a new stem. As Rick said, these are the 3 items that are normally wrong on a new bicycle. Give Rick at Bike Fitness Coaching a call to get yourself to a whole new and comfortable level!
