““Bloody great stuff, if you ever have the opportunity, do it! Ricky was a star.”
”A quick ‘big up’ to Ricky at Pearsons, Sheen. A good bloke, knew a lot about physiology, the human body and was a great help with the CycleFit. I learned a lot not only about my settings on the bike, but about my own body too!”
”I would highly recommend a bike fit with Ricky. I had back pain and numb crotch on my beloved bike....spent 1.5hrs with Ricky and he has completely sorted out the issues... Pain free riding - couldn’t be happier. Thank you!””

Should I Consider online Bike Fitting?
Our online bike fitting service is available as a great alternative to the standard bike fit. All you need is a turbo trainer, alan key and access to the internet. Online bike fitting requires some simple guided bike tool use from your side, using an alan key to make changes to your saddle height and fore/ aft plus the handle bars. As the online bike fit requires an adequate video link you’ll need a strong connection to the internet with a mobile camera that can be placed at the side of the bike (far enough away that we can see you and the bike) and in front of the bike (or you can turn the bike).
The online bike fit starts with a full history from a qualified chiropractor and CyleFit bike fitter. As we can’t physically perform an examination we will take you through an off the bike movement screen that can be done at home and picks up any limitations that could be affecting you on the bike. We can guide you through specific neuro-orthopaedic tests that can further localise your pain and guide future managment and rehab.
The online bike fit then progresses to cleat fitting where we will guide you to find the perfect position for you and your bike. All you need is an alan key for this step. Then we move on to the bike fitting. You’ll just need your bike set up on a turbo trainer and the camera set up to view you from the side. We can assess your saddle height and saddle fore-aft from here. Because this is an online bike fitting we’ll need you to do the moving under guidance from us, you’ll need your alan key again and some tape.
The same process will repeat for the handlebar set up and we’ll need to view you from the front of the bike to assess your knee and hand position. We can change handlebar height, distance and rotation. We can also change your stance width at the feet!
As this is an online bike fit and we won’t have new parts to supply you with immediately, we simply advise you on the new parts that would improve your fitting, such as stems and insoles. You can then source this yourself or we can help you with this.
The online bike fit finishes with guidance on taking bike measurements for future reference and application onto other similar bikes. We then discuss a specific off-bike rehab and strengthening exercises which are then sent in a video software.
The online bikefit is a great option if you can’t make it in person, this is your first bike fit and you purely need some simple pointers to get you in the optimal position with the least effort. The online bike fit is also shorter and cheaper than the face to face appointment.
As always if you have any questions at all regarding the online bike fit service or you’d like to book feel free to get in touch via email. We’re happy to help.
Safe riding!
