Professional Bike Fitting for a Comfortable Ride
Going for a bike ride doesn't have to hurt. Of course, there's some fatigue & muscle ache after a longer or harder ride than you're accustomed to -- but there shouldn't be anything more. If you experience significant pain during or after your ride, get your bike's fit checked out! For the same price as one good post-ride massage, you could eliminate the cause of the pain on many future rides. Not only will you feel better, you'll ride faster and help prevent injuries that may come from bad fit -- that's money well spent!
