What is a Bike fitting?

Every person is different – and every road bike can be equipped differently. Bike fitting is about finding the optimal match of road bike configuration, physical prerequisites, and the use of the road bike. The bike fitting process at Vélobsessive begins with a laser-assisted analysis of the rider's body mechanics and movement. Then, on a professional bike fitting simulator, the goal is to find the optimal seating position and efficient power transfer – from saddle height to stem and handlebar or pedal position, and much more.

Saddle Pressure Measurement for Even Greater Comfort on the Bike

A perfectly fitted saddle is crucial for comfort, performance, and riding enjoyment. That’s why Vélobsessive is now offering professional saddle pressure measurements.

Saddle Pressure Mapping

Using state-of-the-art measurement technology, we visualize the pressure distribution between the rider and the saddle while you’re riding. This allows us to precisely analyze pressure peaks, uneven weight distribution, and poor riding positions. Based on the data collected, we’ll work with you to find the right saddle solution and optimize your riding position to suit your anatomy and riding style.

Three Reasons for a Professional Bike Fitting

A perfectly fitted road bike first and foremost ensures more riding fun. Because you can rely on your road bike and feel comfortable in the saddle, you can enjoy your rides even more.

Ride Longer and Faster:

Only on an ideally adjusted road bike will you find optimal comfort and power transfer.

Efficiency and Aerodynamics:

You have no energy to waste. Whether it’s a pleasure ride or a competition, bike fitting ensures a riding position with optimal aerodynamics for the best possible efficiency. Read more about aerodynamics in our blog post: Aerodynamics in Road Cycling.

Ride Relaxed and Pain-Free:

When your bike is optimally adjusted to your body measurements, you avoid unnecessary misalignments or tensions – and reduce the risk of injuries.

Vélobsessive Bike-Adjustment Services After the Bike Fitting

Many service tasks such as the adjustment of shoe plates, saddle height, and saddle position can be carried out directly after the bike fitting in our workshop.

However, larger modifications and/or new components are often necessary. For example, it may be necessary to mount a new handlebar or a new stem. Therefore, after the bike fitting, you will receive a binding offer – and we will schedule a workshop appointment.

How much does a bike fitting cost?

At Vélobsessive, we offer bike fitting at a fixed price. The Bike Fitting - Basic costs 190.00 CHF. The Bike Fitting - Dynamic costs 320.00 CHF. For optimal results, we recommend the Bike Fitting – Dynamic. With the Bike Fitting – Dynamic, we can test the calculated position on the simulator, measure all angles, and adjust the optimal position continuously to your needs. For professionals, we offer the Bike Fitting – Pro at a price of 420.00 CHF, which also includes a 3D pedal analysis. Specifically for triathletes, we offer the Bike Fitting TRI at a price of 490.00 CHF.

How useful is a bike fitting?

A bike fitting is very useful, especially if you:

  • Have comfort issues: pain in the neck, back, knees, or hands.
  • Want to increase efficiency: An optimal riding position improves power transfer.
  • Want to maximize performance: Road cyclists or triathletes often benefit from aerodynamic adjustments.
  • Want to avoid injuries: Incorrect posture can lead to overuse injuries.

A bike fitting is especially recommended for ambitious cyclists, but even hobby cyclists can benefit from it.

How long does a bike fitting take?

The Bike Fitting – Dynamic takes 1.5-2 hours. The Bike Fitting – Pro and Bike Fitting TRI take approximately 2.5-3 hours. At Vélobsessive, we offer bike fitting at a fixed price, regardless of how long it takes to find your optimal position.

What do I need to bring to the bike fitting?

You should bring your cycling attire and shoes. If you use a rare pedal system, you should also bring your pedals. We have the common systems Look, Shimano SPD, and Shimano SPD SL in the studio.

Can I bring my existing bike to the bike fitting?

It is not strictly necessary to bring your existing bike to the bike fitting, but if possible, you can bring it. We will measure it with the laser tool and calculate the difference from your optimal position, which will help us make the necessary adjustments. If you want to buy a new road bike, it also makes sense to bring your existing bike. This allows us to assess your previous habits.

Are the adjustments to my existing road bike included in the bike fitting?

No, adjustments to your existing road bike are not included because we cannot know in advance which adjustments will be necessary. In most cases, we can directly adjust the saddle position. However, in some cases, it may be necessary to make minor or major modifications to your road bike, such as replacing components like the seat post, stem, crankset, or handlebars. We can offer these adjustments to you after the bike fitting, and you can have them done with us.
