  • Anyone who has discomfort related to cycling (e.g. low back pain, knee pain, saddle or hand numbness during or after cycling, etc.).
  • Recreational and competitive cyclists that want to maximize their efficiency and comfort on the bike and to reduce the risk of developing overuse injuries.
  • We are currently offering bike fits from our highly trained professional bike fitter, Rob Wright.
  • Refer to Rob Wright’s website for more information about his bike fitting services: Bike Fit Solutions

What does the bike fit include?

  • A thorough history of current injuries, past injuries, training volume, and racing goals.
  • A physical examination of leg length, limb alignment, overall mobility and flexibility, posture and any other biomechanical issues that are relevant to the bike fit.
  • Observation and documentation of current riding position.
  • Adjustments to the bike and cleats are made to optimize the fit (note: in some cases you will be advised to get different parts for the bike). Final bike position measurements are documented.
  • Instruction is given on proper riding posture and technique.
  • Specific therapeutic exercises are prescribed as needed. This assessment is useful for any athlete (competitive or recreational) that is interested in injury prevention and optimal movement efficiency.

Tyler & Barry (physio & massage therapy) helped me heal my 3 year long injury in my left groin. I'm just about to go there again to heal my right one now. I tried everything before this and physio and massage therapy was the answer for me. Staff is very friendly and place is very welcoming
