GreshFit Bike Fit
Heavily influenced by Steve Hogg, a world renowned bike fitting specialist, Tim Gresh utilizes a functional approach and aims for each rider to obtain functional symmetry on the bike and realize a new level of comfort and performance. The results speak for themselves and examples can be found in testimonials from riders that fell in love with cycling all over again after their bike fit.

Functional Bike Position
The human body is amazingly adaptable, and will cope with a poor bike position through autonomic responses that are below conscious thought. A functional bike position limits body coping, allowing the rider to pedal under high load while maintaining a stable pelvis in the saddle, at the lowest possible metabolic cost.
A functional approach focuses on the fact that no human is perfectly symmetrical in their movement. Therefore, no rider will function with perfect symmetry on a symmetrical machine such as a bicycle. These imperfections in rider symmetry manifest themselves in a plethora of ineffective riding styles which are visually noticeable in many riders, such as knees tracking away from centerline of bike, rear end sitting off-center on seat, feet oscillating in different directions, among many other examples. These unusual patterns of movement are a result of the body adapting to performing a task it was never intended for: propelling a symmetrical bicycle.
“Humans are not symmetrical and therefore will not function in perfect symmetry on a symmetrical machine such as a bicycle.” Tim Gresh
Do these oddities pose a problem to the rider, and can they be fixed? The answer is far too complex for a yes or no answer. Therein lies the complexity of bike fitting as humans sit atop symmetrical machines.
There are many different solutions that can result in an ideal bike position. These solutions are as varied as the riders themselves. The right solution is the one that provides the individual with an impactful POSITIVE difference.
You’re a few steps away from making the most impactful investment in your cycling career. No new component, new piece of kit, or even a new bike will have the long term positive impact of getting properly fit on your bike by GreshFit!
