I had an great experience with James during my professional bike fit. His professionalism and keen attention to detail were evident throughout the process. The adjustments he made have made a significant positive impact on my cycling. The improved balance, efficiency, and increased power on my left side are remarkable. My glutes and hamstrings are now fully engaged and working throughout the pedal stroke. I now feel extremely comfortable on the saddle and transitioning between the hoods and drops is seamless. I would highly recommend James and his bike fitting expertise.

James Roberts has a structured approach to bike fits; first looking at you and any possible injuries/impingement's, then looking at your position and improving the interaction between your cleats, saddle, and handlebars. Also creates custom shoe molds.Very professional and thorough approach, would highly recommend James to any any keen cyclists looking to improve their power and comfort on the bike.

Got me back on my bike after a medical condition had kept me off it for over 6 months. They listened very carefully to the problem and optimised my bike set-up to best suit my healing condition.There was lots of evidenced-based advice on how I was interacting with the bike too, and I what I needed to change to both accommodate my condition and optimise my performance given the restrictions I was facing.Fit2Ride provides a service based not only on the science, but also from experience and the school of practical common sense. Listen to what's being said and you'll get a lot out of this. It's not cheap, but it's one of those occasions where you do actually get what you pay for.

James took the time to really understand me, the challenges and made recommendations that genuinely will improve my performance. He knows his stuff and didn’t “sell” me anything, just offered advice that was genuinely game changing for me. Highly recommend and if you aren’t sure you need a bike fit or not speaking to James will probably convince you… you do!

I was blown away but the quality of the bike fit experience with James. I'd been experiencing imbalance issues on the bike for over a year and made a number of tweaks in an attempts to try and find comfort, but nothing had worked. Within the afternoon with James, he identified a number of small, but very significant changes to saddle, cleat, foot and bar position, which resulted in me feeling more balanced and stable on the bike than ever before. Can honestly say, it was the best money I've spent to improve riding experience.With a new bike on the way, I'll be booking in for another fit as soon as it arrives.

As a newcomer to cycling I had no real idea what to expect. James was immediately great with information and is clearly an expert in his field. Had some great technique insights and tips to assist me. Left with all the information and measurements I needed going forwards. Will definitely use again and recommend to anyone who uses a bike at all levels - indoor and out.

No word of a lie, I set a new threshold power the first time time I rode my bike after all changes were made.So this is why you should go to James for your bike fit:- Regular, informative communication as part of the process - email, What's App - so I knew what to expect and before and got a summary afterwards. Got the feeling that James was really invested in the outcome and wants to know how I was getting on with the changes- Relaxed, enjoyable session. I felt listened to and like James really got under the skin of what my life on the bike was like in order to make suggestions. Never in any way felt rushed through the session. James created a safe atmosphere to ask the questions I'd always wanted to ask. I never felt like I was getting up-sold anything.- He knows what he's talking about. We made some changes that have been transformative to for me: saddle, seat height, crank length. We arrived at all the changes via two-way conversation, explanations, videos, Q&A.- Felt like James went above & beyond. Put in a call or two to check that changes to my bike could be made and made recommendations and connections based on my cycling goals.Thanks so much James :)

The bike fit session with James was really positive and informative looking at the wider aspets of body and bike fit rather than a uniform measurement process. Really worthwhile 3 hours and gave me plenty of take-awas to try and think about.

The man knows his stuff!! Forget your fancy fit studios with expensive jigs. James will strip everything down and get back to basics and so long as you keep and open mind and trust his judgment you will find a good place on the bike.
