Lukep Posted December 9, 2009 Share Has anyone had one of these fitments done? I have just got a new bike and I have been thinking about having a cycle lab fitment done before I do my first ride to make sure I am properly set up on the bike. Comments suggestions?

Face Plant Posted December 9, 2009 Share setup is always worth the money!! dont they offer a fitment with the purchase of a new bike? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndreZA Posted December 9, 2009 Share As long as it is not done by one of the school kids working there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andyr249 Posted December 9, 2009 Share The fitment is only done if you purchase the bike from them.If not you have to pay. But it is worth it! I had one done in October. Just phone and book. Not sure the name of the guy but it seems like there is a dedicated guy who does them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

techguy Posted December 9, 2009 Share Try booking for a Specialized BG fit, much more in depth, a liitle more expensive but you get what you pay for, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djvr Posted December 9, 2009 Share I had my fitment done on my previous bike. I had to finetune it myself (height of saddle). I used my old bikes settings to set up my new bike. No probs on it Ummm, is it worth it. I still think so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lukep Posted December 9, 2009 Share Who does the BG fitting? I saw at Cycle lab fourways that they had a Specialized certificate up there or do you have to go to FPC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder Woman Posted December 9, 2009 Share Has anyone had one of these fitments done?I have just got a new bike and I have been thinking about having a cycle lab fitment done before I do my first ride to make sure I am properly set up on the bike. Comments suggestions? Where did you get the bike that they never offered to set you up??? I think a fitment is definitely a yes but I think cyclelab ask a lot for one...which I'm not sure is worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lukep Posted December 9, 2009 Share I bought my bike from a bike shop in the Western Cape, I used to live there and have moved up to JHB and I dont trust anyone else when it comes to buying bikes so I bought it from him and he shipped it up to JHB for me.

ewald99 Posted December 9, 2009 Share i went to cyclelab expecting all fancy computers and stuff and the guy (one of those schoolkids referred to above i assume) just got me on the bike and checked it out and made some adjustments. at one point he says to me: 'i don't know why your ass is rocking like that, what are you doing?", so i say, it is because you put my saddle so high I can hardly pedal!" so he goes "oh you have a point" and adjusts it!!!! don't know if that kind of expert advice is worth R350, but I learnt my lesson, make sure what you get before you put your bike in the stand!
