Physiotherapist Led Bike Fits

Cycling is a sport of repetition and stability. Cycling biomechanics involve repetitive motions in the sagittal plane for a prolonged duration. Dynamic core stability enables you to translate this effort into motion. Over time, riding with poor fit can impact your comfort, enjoyment, and performance on the bike.

Road bike fits are an extremely important part of your journey with your bike. Once you’ve found your road bike, whether sizing was custom, bought online according to general guidelines, or through Marketplace, the next step is to fit your bike to your body’s anatomy, your unique mechanics, and your cycling history. 

A proper bike fit integrating a cyclist’s strength, mobility capabilities and restrictions using orthopaedic testing, and injury history can prevent injuries, increase comfort on their bike, and improve their performance.

Whether it’s your longest, furthest, highest, most comfortable, or first ride, I am here to support you.

My approach

Working with elite athletes from a multitude of sports has given me the unique perspective of analyzing the “must haves” and “nice to haves” biomechanics that each sport asks for. These same principles when applied to cycling create a blueprint of needs and wants of tissue tolerances, strength within certain planes, and ideal strength:endurance ratios. 

When conducting bike fits, there’s an integration of science and art, specifically the science of degrees and distances with the art of how someone feels and/or looks on their bike. 

Assessing and addressing each of these occurs during a bike fit with the client’s season-specific or long-term goal in mind.

Your investment

Your 2-hour Initial Bike Fit appointment is priced at $250.

This includes a 3-month follow up guarantee at no cost to you, should need be.

We suggest an annual pre-season 1-hour Follow Up Bike Fit for our clients to ensure any changes to your body and your bike are factored in for the upcoming season. This is priced at $150.

What we need

  • Do you get dropped on rides with friends even though you know you can keep up?
    Does a recurring stiffness, pain, or general discomfort limit cycling to the best of your ability?
    Did you buy your bike off marketplace and have no idea why your seat is cranked all the way back?
    Do you have an upcoming adventure and want to make sure you and your bike are as optimized as can be?
    If any of those questions are running through your mind, a Bike Fit would be beneficial to improve your comfort, performance, and feel from your bike.

  • Extended health insurance plans vary but may cover up to 100% of this fee under Physiotherapy services. Please check with your insurance company for coverage prior to the appointment.

  • No. In this case, we will focus on aspects of the Bike Fit that don’t require these tools and your own mechanics, strengths, and limitations.

    I may suggest swapping out certain components of your bike if we see a blatant inefficiency, in which case I can suggest an appropriate local bike shop if need be.

  • Absolutely. I’m stoked that you’ve done your homework and gotten a general guideline of what size bike fits your height/ inseam. The benefit of a Bike Fit would be taking that bike and really zeroing in your saddle comfort and performance, optimizing your cockpit set up to fit your biomechanics, and maximizing your pedal stroke efficiency.

Each of our personalized bike fits can be done in the privacy of your home at a time that best suits your schedule. 

We will need an approx 3m x 3m space that is flat, as well as, you, your bike, your cycling shoes, and cycling (or tight-fitting) clothing.

A mutually agreed upon space can also be provided as need be.
