The Ideal Bike Fit at Green Lizard Cycling
Our philosophy has always been to treat everyone as we would like to be treated and to add value to everything we do. The Ideal Bike Fit fit is all about YOU!
We believe bike fitting is part of a total care process to ensure you are 1- riding or purchasing the correctly sized bike and 2- you are pleased with how you and your bike work together to achieve your goals, whether it’s recreational, fitness riding, doing your first century, that long mountain bike race, or finishing your first Ironman.
A bike fit is a service, not a product. The tools are important, but you are paying for the experience of the professional that will fit you to the bike.
A bicycle is one of the most interactive and biomechanically connected pieces of sporting equipment most people will ever buy. Each person is unique and it’s critical to start with that in mind. The Bike Fit Studio at Green Lizard Cycling is proud to be the only Fit Studio on the East Coast to have a Pan American Champion Cyclist and Olympic cyclist utilizing his experience and continuing education to fit bikes and cyclists together. During many years racing in the Americas, Europe, Caribbean and Asia, Clovis Anderson studied Physical Education in his native Brazil and was certified as a cycling coach from UCI and the IOC. After accepting a job offer in the US, Clovis has achieved certifications in nearly all Bike Fit schools in the United States, having been the first in the Mid-Atlantic to have the SBCU Master BG Fit Certification in 2010.
Your Green Lizard Bike Fit session includes a comprehensive examination of your biomechanics on and off the bike. Other bike fit studios may offer what they consider a comprehensive fit in the sense of positioning a client on the bike and adjustments based on ideal measurements, but are not able to offer the off-bike analysis of the rider’s skeletal and muscular systems condition.
Ideal measurements are only one part of The Ideal Bike Fit. The human body is asymmetrical, and no two bodies are the same. Making the body and the bike feel like one is a primary goal of The Ideal Bike Fit found at Green Lizard Cycling with Clovis.
The Ideal Bike Fit system ensures the bike you are riding is not just the correct size, but also that you are in the best possible position, and you are pleased with how you and your bike work together to achieve your goals.
A bicycle is one of the most interactive and biomechanically connected pieces of sporting equipment most people will ever buy. Each person is unique and it’s critical to start with that in mind. Regardless of the price level at which you are purchasing, there is no reason to compromise on getting a ride you can love for a lifetime.
What’s new at Green Lizard Cycling Fit Studio:
Green Lizard Cycling never stops improving and investing in our Bike Fit Studio.
Now, located at 716 Lynn St., Herndon VA, 20170, the Green Lizard Bike Fit Studio is bigger, more comfortable, far from the Bike Shop “hustle and bustle”. Located next door to the original Green Lizard Building, the Green Lizard Bike Fit Studio is the only one in Northern Virginia which has a separate building, dedicated exclusively to Bike Fitting.
Green Lizard Bike Fit Studio is excited to introduce the combination of the Shimano Dynamics Lab, Dialed In Motion/Video Capture Fit and Retul Fit Systems. We combined the best part of the best systems in the industry. By combining them, you can not only see yourself riding in 360 degrees, Clovis is able to more effectively use these tools together to improve your cycling experience. He’ll make the necessary adjustments and in real-time, so you’ll be able to see the before and after results with combined videos. Your pedal stroke will be smoother, more efficient, with the goal of avoiding possible issues in the future.
Green Lizard Bike Fit Studio is the only studio in the East Coast to offer this combination of Bike Fit Systems. We have expanded the bike fit area to accommodate this new state of the art fit equipment. This system not only sees and measures knees, pelvis, shoulders, neck, etc. ... but also evaluates your pedal stroke.
Please note that a fee of $50.00 will be charged for missed fitting appointments or any appointments canceled less than 24 hours in advance. Thank you for your consideration and cooperation.
