17 years of bike fitting in Tyrol - Bikefitting ★★★★S
17 years ago the current cycling and triathlon boom couldn`t be expected: only insiders knew about the bikefitting topic. Nowadays ambitious cyclists can't even hide from it, because almost every magazine, manufacturer and dealer is dedicated to the perfect bike position. In addition the number of bikefitting services and ergonomic hardware has grown. From my point of view, I can look backward to more than a decade of bikefitting improvements. This "tuning" has interested me from the beginning of my cycling career, but in the end of the 80s cycling wasn`t so popular. Only few folks were riding on their steel roadbikes because cycling wasn`t cosy and hip. The mountain bike had still to be invented. These tough times in the saddle founded my expertise in bikefitting. This story continues thankfully in my bikefitting studio in Innsbruck - where experience meets finesse.
Bikefitting for even more bike
The Sablona Cleat Multitool is a versatile, transparent tool designed for precise cleat alignment. It offers easy adjustments for Shimano SPD-SL, Look KEO, and SPD-compatible cleats. Suitable for both professional bike mechanics and hobbyists.
This multitool is the technical solution for precise cleat adjustment, which can be easily checked and changed at any time. With its functional lines and angles, the cleats can be precisely aligned in relation to the shoe and pedal. This makes it an invaluable tool for anyone who wants to achieve the ideal connection between foot, shoe and pedal.

Exercise is more than sport - keep going.
Bikefitting is a dynamic process
Bikefitting is active riding. Motion sequences are analyzed, adapted and finally implemented. This procedere is all about pedaling motion, general posture, specific positions and joint angles. Shoe/ feet, legs (especially knees), pelvic position, spine, neck, head, shoulders, arms and hands are to be analyzed. Your posture will be permanently checked, re-adjusted and improved. Fitting in progress only the final position is good to go!
Bikefitting is not Bikesizing
Bikesizing is the static measurement of body proportions to determine the hardware. Of course a bikefitting can help, but the selection of the right frame size is done in your trusted bike shop. For any reasons we don`t offer sizing for custom frames, the bike you bring along will be fitted to your body.
FIT YOUR BIKE
Feeling & efficiency
Many cyclists ride with incorrect saddle and handlebar adjustments. Hardware is put together without exploiting the real potential in every item. If the connecting points cannot provide the needed position i.e. the perfect saddle adjustment is limited, the final result is restricted. Handlebars are usually set somehow lower than the saddle to make the bike looking good. In addition to physical limitations also discomfort, back-, knee- and neck-pain will be accompanied, too.
Cleats adjusted perfectly
If cleats are fixed in the pedal body without wobbling a firm connection is the result. If - on the other hand - a torsional movement can cause unwanted freedom of movement instability will arise.
Bar tape in perfection
A soft, tacky touch handlebar tape helps to keep a good grip. Less muscular fatigue through more friction can be realized. More grip - more safety!
Racebar without racing
The shape of the handlebar determines the quality of the contact. Selection between classic, anatomical and ergonomic bars provide a different shape, drop and reach. Maybe a compact racebar will be suggested after a bike fitting.
20 Cent
A straightbar offers only one hand position: the grips. The various lock-on grips differ in thickness, surface finish, shape and rigidity. These differences are decisive for the connection quality. A Lock-On grip will help to prevent slipping.
Cycling shoes should fit
Cycling shoes are offered in different stiffness indexes and different sole widths. A variety of bases for every foot. Ventilation helps to prevent overheating and swelling of the feet. Tight but without wrinkles and yet big enough, that is the recipe for road cycling shoes, triathlon shoes, mountain bike shoes and gravel shoes.
Aero by aerobar
Rest relaxed on arm pads with hands on the extensions of the triathlonbar. Full speed ahead! During a bike fit the position will be optimized, so you can look forward to the run-split.
Handy brake levers
The brake lever is adjusted to the respective finger length during a bikefitting session. Have a brake at any time!
Saddle height
A bicycle saddle is the central element of bike fitting. A wide variety of materials and designs, including 3D printing. Each pelvis can be supported properly while pedalling. Saddle almost horizontal and in the right vertical position.
Shape is just a snapshot - the correct position is forever
