Professional bike fitting · Whitegate, Cheshire
A bike fit built around how you actually ride.
A full, unhurried fit near Northwich — off-bike movement screen, analysis of you under load, and a written report you keep. Road, gravel, mountain, time trial or triathlon; every bike, every level. The aim: fewer niggles, comfortable power, and a position that suits how you actually ride.
How I fit:
The fastest position is the one you can hold, fuel from, and finish strong in
Anyone can slam a saddle back and drop a stem to look pro. It only counts if you can stay there for the whole ride, keep eating and drinking, and still have something left at the end — whether that’s the last climb of a long sportive, a rough gravel race, the final lap on the trails, or the run off a triathlon. I fit for the position you can actually use, not the one that photographs well — or whatever a generic bike-fit algorithm calls ‘optimal’ without knowing the rider.
What Happens:
A full fit, start to finish
Two unhurried hours. I look at your body first, then the bike — not the other way round.
01
Chat & history
Your riding, goals, niggles, injuries and what the bike’s for. Where it hurts and where you want to get to.
02
Off-bike movement screen
A structured look at how your body moves off the bike — mobility, stability and any restrictions — so I know what it can and can’t give before I touch the bike.
03
Measurements
Baseline measurements of you and the bike, all recorded, so every change is deliberate and tracked
04
Cleat position
The foot is the contact point everything else builds on, so it’s sorted before any dynamic work.
05
Warm up & measure under load
With markers on your ankle, knee and hip, I measure your key riding angles once you’re properly warmed up and pedalling at real effort, then adjust and re-test one change at a time until we reach your "fit window".
05
Warm up & measure under load
I measure your key riding angles from markers on your ankle, knee and hip. I start at the saddle — your power base — and only move to the cockpit once that’s right, adjusting and re-testing one change at a time. until we reach your "fit window".

eBike Service and Repair FAQs
Do I need to book an appointment?
Yes - contact us before dropping off to confirm I'm at the workshop. I'm often out on collections, deliveries or mobile work, so a quick call or message saves a wasted trip. If daytime drop-off doesn't work, we can arrange something - just ask.
Do you repair batteries and motors?
Motors: yes — I diagnose the fault, and for a full rebuild I remove the motor, send it to a specialist UK motor-rebuild centre, then refit and recommission it, managing the whole job for you. Batteries: I test them and can supply a replacement, but I don’t rebuild battery cells — that’s a safety and warranty matter for the manufacturer. Either way you get one honest diagnosis and one point of contact.
​Do I have to have bought the bike from you?
No. I service eBikes bought anywhere — bike shop, online or second-hand.
Do you repair electrical faults on Amazon-type eBikes?​
Honestly, no. I don't take on electrical or battery faults on cheap direct-order or unbranded eBikes — the sort sold on Amazon, eBay and similar. They often have no parts support, no proper documentation, and battery packs that can be a real fire risk to open, so it isn't work I'm insured or willing to do. I'm still happy to help with the mechanical side — brakes, gears and wheels — but for an electrical fault on one of these you're best going back to the seller or the battery maker
​
How long will it take?
It depends on the job. A standard service or repair is usually turned around within a few days — often quicker — and I'll give you a firm date when you book. A drive-unit overhaul takes longer and is less predictable: the motor is sent away to a specialist, so the timescale depends on their assessment, workload and parts availability, plus shipping each way. As a rough guide that's usually one to two weeks door to door, occasionally longer if parts are on back-order. I'll keep you posted with a realistic ETA once it's been looked at, rather than guess
​
Can you Collect and Return my eBike?
Yes - I can collect and return your eBike within a radius of 10 miles of CW8 2BJ. This service cost £30. My preference is for customers to drop off where possible.
