Interbike 2009 - The Bike Fit Systems booth was packed!

Day 1 – What a blast.
Steve Hogg from Australia was in our booth most of the day.











Here he talking to Paraic McGlynn the head bike fitter for Serotta.

The legendary John Howard spent over an hour visiting and talking with customers.


Ed Palvelka from Road Bike Rider going over the Bike Fit Awards

Funniest thing I have seen so far at the show - Kathleen Krumme from Serotta meeting Steve Hogg and trying to sell him a Serotta fit class.....having no clue who she was talking to :-)

What do you think?

Neutral Forefoot - so they are now actually letting us know what we all knew about most shoes all along.

shoes that help

Not the first time we have seen this but worth a look. Check out this link.
Nice to also have a little help from the cycling shoes. These shoes allow for more side to side cleat adjustment.

If anyone gets to see and work with these shoes we would love to hear from you.

Cheers

Russ gets some accolades after teaching recent class

Paul and Russ,

Thanks for the class. Of all the fitting classes I have taken, yours offered the most practical information and by far the most hands on practice of the principals taught. The small class size makes a huge difference with these types of programs.

Russ also just won the Mt Baker Hill Climb this weekend. Way to go Russ!

Notice the Cleat Wedges - Cycling News

New Keo Pedals - this writer must be a Cleat Wedge fan.
Please folks - when you install the cleat wedges make sure the front edge is not sticking out front like you see in the photo in the link above. Wedges that stick out the front can bunch up and make it difficult to clip in. Wedges are not meant to be cut or trimmed just installed correctly.

Notice the new Keo pedal is wider. ummmmmmmmmm just like Shimano SL went wider a year or two ago.

So what does WIDER mean? Instead of the pedal wearing crooked or at an angle because most feet tilt (the older pedals were a little softer material), your tilted foot now will be even more misaligned because this will force the foot to be MORE FLAT and stay misaligned flat.

Bravo!!!!!!!!! Another pedal company not only ignoring the problem but making it worse. I gotta take my hat off to the lack of thought by both Shimano and Look for going with wider and stronger platform because the pedals wore from tilted feet but missing the actual problem.

Ignorance is truly bliss.
