What makes Velo Valets' bike fitting service different from other shops?

Velo Valets uses Shimano's advanced 3D motion analyzer and fit bike system to measure pedaling dynamics and test variables like crank length (155–180mm), handlebar width, and saddle options without guessing. The shop maintains over 50 test saddles and can translate fit data to over 60 brands and 3,000 frame models to determine ideal sizing. Fitting is priced at $99/hour, allowing customers to pay only for specific services such as testing crank lengths or trying saddles.

Does Velo Valets build custom bikes, and what brands does it work with?

Yes, the shop builds custom bikes and works with manufacturers including BMC, ENVE, Mosaic, and Ventum, along with high-quality components and accessories. The shop's focus is on matching the right bike to the customer's fit and goals rather than pushing a particular brand.

What types of service does Velo Valets offer beyond bike sales?

The shop offers professional bike fitting, service on all makes and models, custom builds, and coaching or event preparation. Mechanics are available for general repairs and maintenance.

Can Velo Valets help with bikes purchased elsewhere?
