A bike fit at The Bike Affair is a hands-on session with a certified fitter, not a reading off a machine. We adjust your bike and your riding position so you can ride longer, ride more comfortably, and avoid the aches that make people stop riding altogether. Sessions run from 45 minutes to three hours, and every fit is backed by our 60-day money-back guarantee.
Bike Fit is a series of adjustments both to the bike, as well as the riding posture to achieve the most comfortable, and efficient riding position possible. A good bike fit can transform your riding experience.
An average cyclist makes 5400 pedal revolutions per hour. Now imagine having saddle height, reach or cleat setup off by even a few millimeters. Those few millimeters can be the difference between cycling being fun and painful, between getting fitter and getting injured.
A bike fit is ideal for any rider, and often, we suggest a bike fit for any of the following reasons:
Now, the pertinent question is not "Why bike fit?" but "Why us?”
We refrain from generalizing bike fits. Every rider is unique and that is why the same fit may never work for two riders. This is true even if they are of same age & height and ride similar bikes. Unfortunately, that is exactly the opposite of what a machine-based bike fit does. A machine or a fit system is supposed to provide data, which a bike fitter analyses and take the next steps based on their knowledge and experience.
This is where we come in. We do not perform run of the mill fit but are here to provide solutions to your problems.
Krish has been doing bike fit for close to 8 years now. Motivated by his own interest, initially, he spent a lot of time learning by himself. In 2017, at a bike show in Europe, he got a chance to spend an entire day with a renowned bike fitter. This was his first international exposure to bike fit where he learned that his techniques were quite similar to the ones employed internationally. In October 2017, he got formally trained and received a Level 1 Certification. He followed this up with another training program and received an Advanced Certification in April 2018.
During both these training programs, he got the chance to learn from one of the best bike fitters in the world. Krish relies on his eyes & experience to perform a bike fit. While the data gives him a direction, his experience drives the bike fit process. Riders trust his eyes & intuition for the skill.
Every fit is one-to-one with Krish at our Hyderabad store, and is backed by our 60-day money-back guarantee.

For cyclists who ride frequently, ride long distances, or are into performance cycling. The focus is threefold — performance, comfort and injury free riding.
