The Glacier Cyclery Bicycle Fitting System
Customized bike fitting has been a service Glacier Cyclery has offered to it’s customers since its inception in 1981. Bikes are very adjustable and a bike that fits you better will be more comfortable to ride as well as allow you to achieve a higher level of performance. If you want more comfort, more pedaling efficiency, the perfect frame size or to prevent potential injury, there's nothing more effective than a correct fit.
We have been using the Bike Fit System by Paul Swift for the past three years and have fit over 55 individuals. This system focuses on proper cleat placement as the platform to build from and uses the tools and techniques pioneered by Dr. Andrew Pruitt, the foremost bicycle fitting specialist in the US.
Our Bike Fit System is able to fit all riders’, builds and proportions, to all styles of bikes —mountain, road, time-trial and triathlon. In 2006, we fit more triathletes than any other group of rider. With the Fit System we are able to improve the comfort of your bike, enhance your performance or eliminate aggravating pains. A complete fitting session takes 2 to 3 hours and the cost is $100. Call and set up an appointment to get your bike fitting you like a good worn glove, boost your performance and/or alleviate soreness!
