Bike Fitting
Why choose bike fitting services at Rehab United?
At Rehab United Seattle, your bike fitting will be performed by a Physical Therapist, someone who specializes in sport specific movement and biomechanics. Bike fits done at shops around the country are also applied by amazing professionals, however they focus most entirely on improving performance.
At your bike fit with RU, our highly trained specialists will perform a detailed evaluation and modify your setup to alleviate any pain or dysfunction that is resulting from a poorly fitted bike. Often times, it’s the difference of a few millimeters than can make a large impact on comfort and pain on the bike, especially on those longer rides or mountain bike climbs.
Our goal will always be to address your specific concerns and get you back to pain free cycling!
​
