Chomprohensive Fitting Service.

Bicycle fitting is the meticulous understanding of the intricate human interaction with a bicycle, with the specific aim of gaining efficiency, power and comfort for every rider. Because we are concerned with optimising human movement that is being applied to complex machinery, cycle-fitting readily draws upon from the disciplines of ergonomics, bio-mechanics and kinesiology. In the pursuit for performance and the competitive edge PCC will always place science, knowledge and discipline above notions of faith and tradition. This scientific approach has made us largely exceptional in the south eastern United Staes and an acknowledged authority in the field of building optimum bike-to-human relationships.

What we do.

In performing a fitting, we begin with an extensive interview. The goal of this interview is to find out what has and has not worked with your current set-up, what injuries you have had, and what has been giving you problems. Your flexibility is assessed, as are your core strength and your stability—all of which are critical to determining proper posostion. Any biomechanical issues that may affect your bike set-up are examined as well, such as a leg length descrepencies and foot stability. From this assessment we can focus in on the problem areas.


Following this evaluative process, we will work with you to obtain the best position possible to improve your position and efficiency. The positioning itself is a highly dynamic in nature, moving you through a range of positions and taking measurements in each one.


You will have your existing setup measured and recorded to be used as a baseline, which helps us assess how to best position you. Following your fitting, we record your positional coordinates and any appropriate comments. All adjustments to your bike are made during the fitting whenever possible.

The Foundation of a Good Bike fit.

A man made structure is only as strong as the foundation it rest on. Likewise a great bike fit, like a well built building, should be built from the foundation up. Aligning the foot and making it a stable structure on the pedal is perhaps the most important step towards achieving an efficient, powerful and durable position. Improper pedaling motions is often caused by a lack of alignment of the lower leg and foot. It compromises power, strength, endurance and even aerodynamics. The good news is that there are things we can do that can accommodate for your individual alignment and bring your knee and leg into an aligned, safe, strong and more effecient position.

Custom Cycling Footbeds Service

We are one of the only locations in the south east offering truly custom cycling foot beds. These are not semi-custom or made in some factory somewhere but manuctured on site using the InstaPrint products. Foot stability is the foundation every good fit is built upon. Custom cycling footbeds help align your body, while evenly distributing pressure and supporting your foot. Notable power increases are common, along with increased comfort, endurance and reduced joint wear.
