Retul Fits at Jack & Adam's Bicycles

Jack & Adam's Bicycles is now offering Retul Fits.

What is Retul?

Retul is the most comprehensive fitting tool available. The system uses cycling-specific 3D motion capture technology that allows for a dynamic fit. The motion of the rider can be recorded immediately while they are under normal physiologic loads on the bicycle. Retul can capture the exact moment of peak knee angle flexion, extension, hip angle, knee over foot, etc. This allows for a dynamic fit that will put you a better position because the system is recording quantitative data that cannot be accurately measured statically.

Retul can also be used for new bike purchases. The system can produce a comprehensive digital report of 3D bicycle fit coordinates, and bike frame geometry. Using the digital report and Frame Finder we are able to make an accurate recommendation of frame geometry and parts.

Retul 3D Motion Capture Bike Fit: $250
*  10 minute interview process to learn about the rider and their goals
*  Biomechanical analysis of your body off the bike
*  Cycling-specific strength and flexibility assessment
*  3D dynamic capture of body movements
*  Real-time recording of power output and physiological responses to determine optimal fit
*  Digital reports of 3D and 2D body parameters, 3D bicycle fit coordinates, and bike frame geometry

An additional bicycle is priced at $150 when bikes are fit consecutively (for example road and tri/TT bikes fit back to back)

Bike Fitting The Sense Corp Texas 4000



Here at J & A's the fit room is always busy, and over the last couple of weeks The Sense Texas 4000 Riders have been coming in the doors on an hourly basis to take delivery of their new 2010 Felt z85 road bikes.

This group of riders are some of my favorite fits each year. Why? Well servicing them brings in some of the most amazing stories I get to hear and simply they are all neat people. Second, it is bike fitting at its best; riders are new with little history or riding experience, that translates into the importance of testing the fundamental process of what is considered a "good" comfortable but rideable (4500 miles rideable) position.

Positioning 50 riders to pedals and bicycles is a clear opportunity to continually tune the process of what is the real science and art of bike positioning. Taking a rider from beginning with no definitive perceptive awareness to the evolved state of knowing what their individual riding position looks and feels like is the part of bike fitting that few systems and technologies can assure. So, if you haven't heard of The Sense Corp Texas 4000 ride for cancer here is a link to read up: www.texas4000.org

And if you are needing a bike fit or considering advancing your bike position over the winter months, then give us a call and secure your appointment slot, where we will take the time to position you with every consideration.
