Get to the bottom of your saddle troubles
Saddle related issues and concerns are very common, which is why we offer a stand alone service to help you solve your saddle related troubles.
We have 60+ saddles from various brands for you to try and we will help you narrow things down with the help of objective pressure mapping data. No more guessing games!
Bias free solutions
We curate and purchase the best saddles on the market for you to test, from a variety of brands. We do not sell saddles or earn a commission from sales, so we make recommendations completely without bias. We love supporting our cycling community and will help you find the saddle that works for you from a local retailer.
The saddle selection process
What is your saddle issue? Plus Assessment on the bike
We need to know what the problem is before we can solve it.
We start with a brief conversation to understand what your saddle troubles entail. This helps us narrow down some of the saddle options so we can try saddles with intent.
We also observe how you are sitting on the bike and how you interact with the saddle while you ride.
This helps us see if the problem is the saddle itself, the position on the bike, or a combination of both.
Test saddles
We observe how you are sitting on the bike and how you interact with the saddle while you ride. We also quantify everything with Gebiomized saddle pressure mapping - 64 sensors measure how you are interacting with the saddle while riding.
This helps us see if the problem is the saddle itself, the position on the bike, or a combination of both.
Bike modifications + Education
This appointment is not a bike fit, but we might make small modifications to the positions to fit a new saddle, and/or make position and technique recommendations.
We also take the time to educate you about saddles, and how various ones change your fit and riding in general
Recording + measuring
We use a digital measuring device to record the bike's set up so you can install your new saddle once it has been purchased.
Saddle selection and analysis
Your ability level, riding experience, age, the bike you ride, etc do not matter - We strive to provide an equal opportunity experience in an open, inclusive environment
In some cases, the saddle itself is not the problem, the overall fit is (even if you had a fit elsewhere).
Given the limited scope and duration of the saddle session, we might make small modifications to the bike, but recommend a full analysis to get to the root of the problem.
If that is the case, we are happy to extend a $95 credit towards a full analysis if done within 45 days of your saddle session.
We do not recommend scheduling a saddle session for triathlon / TT bikes because changing the saddle often changes the overall fit completely, more significantly compared with road / gravel / MTB
