BikeFit Pro Education class Dec 4-5

Notice the Specialized saddles near the bike – we showed several models of the saddles throughout the class using the "SWITCHIT" which will be available soon. In the meantime if you would like to see the SwitchIT in action now visit Woodinville Bicycle. Mike Rabas the owner of Woodinville Bicycle also visited the class for an hour to talk about bike shop relationships with clinicians. Woodinville Bicycle is a Specialized dealer.  

Lastly a big thanks to Superfeet who supplies us with the world’s greatest over the counter insoles for all shoes, especially cycling.

Happy Pedals

FMD…..did you mean FFMD?

This is the FMD next to our FFMD (Fore Foot Measuring Device by BikeFit).

First impression
Looks – Good
Feels- OK
Functions –Fine

They do feel different but instead of focusing on the difference I think it is more import to acknowledge, THEY DID IT! Congratulations to Specialized. We have always felt this is one of the MOST important tools in bike fitting.

There were times I never thought I would see the day. Maybe I wasn’t so crazy after all.

From one blog to another

Here us Julian talking .....Trek.....   http://cyclefitlondon.blogspot.com/2010/11/trek-fit-ambassadors.html
Trek dealers in parts of Europe are lucky having Phil and Julian of CycleFit as instructors   http://www.cyclefit.co.uk/. They have been customers of ours for years. We spent time over there many moons ago when they were in their infancy. Today one of their disciples Tony Corke who has relocated to the states is one of our instructors. Tony is the Bike Fitter at Tacoma Bike Shop in of all places Tacoma, WA.  http://www.tacomabike.com/ .

Working with Tony the first time was almost like daja vu. It was like life had gone full circle. We were taking about the same things and looking at things similar but he said it all in a funny accent.

oh and one last FYI - Last I heard Phil and Julian have not taken up yoga. Lucky for these Euro dealers.
