Paul Swift (Founder of BikeFit) and Kit Vogel, PT, DPT, MS are actively booking in person bike fits in the Spokane, WA area as well as virtual fits for all cyclists, triathletes, and mountain bikers of all levels including indoor cyclists (like Peloton, Nordictrack, Cycle Bar or other). Locally Kit and Paul work with a few different bike shops and we are also available to bring the fit to you.

What does an in-person bike fitting include?

• A complete bike fit usually takes 2-2.5 hours and includes a follow-up 1-2 weeks after the initial bike fit.
• The fit includes a full dynamic digital assessment of the side and front views with the highly-rated BikeFit App.
• Special attention is given to the contact points, including the foot-pedal interface, saddle, and handlebars/stem (includes tri-bars on tri bikes).
• The foot-pedal interface specifically addresses lower extremity biomechanics that create a wide variety of over-use injuries. Adjustment many include medial-lateral, fore-aft, canting wedges (inside/outside the shoe), inserts, rotation, and (if needed) leg length correction.
• The stem sizer determines the proper length and angle of the stem for the current bike.
• The saddle changer allows the cyclist to try multiple saddles in a very short period of time to select the best possible saddle for comfort, performance and the best possible spine/pelvic biomechanics possible while cycling.

What does a virtual bike fitting include?

• This is initiated with an e-mail review of our services and process.
• When you are ready to begin your fit journey, you will receive a questionnaire that includes sending us photos to review.
• Once we receive your replies, we send an invoice to begin the process.
• Then the initial fit e-mail is sent and typically includes comments and suggestions/adjustments to try prior to meeting virtually. This will also include a list of tools you may need to assist us during this part of the process.
• Getting ready for our first meeting FaceTime is a great option if you have an iPhone. If you do not have an iPhone, we work with MS Teams or Zoom. Having a partner to assist with this process is extremely helpful. You can work without a partner just be prepared to set up your phone, tablet, or computer at different angles and views as we move throughout the process.
• We set a time to meet face to face and review your cycling position moving through the adjustment process. (this is typically under an hour)
• After this session put together a package of necessary items needed like wedges and/or screws. We also throw in a cool pair of socks and mail them to you. These items typically cost between $30 - $50 and are included in your service.
• Occasionally additional items may be recommended from BikeFit.com or another company. These will require an additional fee.
• Often you will receive an instructional video or two to review and be more familiar with the finalizing steps prior to our second FaceTime meeting.
• The next session is usually the final virtual face-to-face meeting including the fine-tuning of your position.
• As you noticed we are not a one-time 45-minute meeting and done partner. Although it is not necessarily difficult to make some type of improvement with your fit in a short time is not possible to offer a complete and thorough fit virtually in 45 minutes. You may also e-mail or call us for comparison to any other fit offering. We will be glad to oblige.

*Having trained over a thousand professional bicycle fitters around the world we occasionally can introduce you to many of the very best cycle fitters in select areas to visit in person or come to you for a fitting. This request is accommodated as best we can, and we are not always able to connect you with a pro fitter, but we try.
