CUSTOM FITTING

Written by Paul |

There's a lot more to sizing a bike than just hopping on, setting your seat height and away you go. Any reputable bike shop will confirm this, and there are lots in the Edmonton area. I'm not going to say we have a better system than any or all of them. I can promise you that with the purchase of a custom fit package, we gaurantee to work through the process of making you comfortable, efficient and powerful on your ride. There are lots of fit courses out there and they all have good tidbits, theories, and practices that are required to graduate their course. Nothing, nothing substitutes for experience both on and off the saddle. I have raced at a high level and know how important body position is for power, and I now know how cruel father time can be to riders and the importance of comfort. So no matter what your purpose on a bike is, these three things remain constant; comfort, efficiency, power. All three go hand in hand but don't fit the same rule for every rider. We are all unique. So if you aren't feeling comfortable on your bike, want to gain more power for your pedal stroke, or are attemting your first triathlon this year and want to make sure you are going to ride efficiently, book an appointment with Paul for a custom fit.

Gary invented the Mountain Bike but it all started on the road. Gary raced road bikes in the early 70's but back then they thought his hair was too long so they took away his race card!

Dirt Jump Park

Hello everyone, I wanted to give you an update about the possiblility of a Dirt jump park in Sherwood Park. I have been working closely with a few members of council the past few months and have started researching what is required for resources and management of such a project. I am encouraged by the response of council and the willingness of community members such as Kris Kasawski, Darren Hantleman, and Dean Kakoschke. I would like to make special not of the work Councillor Jason Gariepy has committed to this endeavour. Without his encouragement and direction this project would have stalled.
I want to make it clear that this park is not approved yet or even close to development. We are working hard to get this approved and constructed as quickly as possible. However there is a process that must be followed and such a project will require appoval of public land. There is no gaurantee it will happen in 2010 but we are trying our best.
I will do my best to keep you updated and watch our website for further updates.

Staff Ski Trip

Ouch, we just got back from our annual staff ski trip. This year saw 13 lucky souls brave a night of too much partying followed by an early start on the mountain. Needless to say fun was had by all, a little too much by some, and one was left footing the bill.

Enjoy the pics, we enjoyed making them.

Need a Job? If you are enthusiastic, like a fast paced fun environment, want to be around the coolest equipment for riding on dirt or snow, and help people find the right gear to do it, would rather ride it than download it, then come drop off a resume and say hi. We need you!
