The fitting began by filling out a form - similar to what you do when you walk into a doctor's office: describing any issues and complaints that I have had as well as my goals and the type of riding that I do. Andy lowered my saddle and moved me forward. He also adjusted my cleats. In addition he instructed me on how to properly position myself on the bicycle and on the proper pedal stroke technique.
Had heard Matt Cole was one of the best in Atlanta for bike fits. I needed a road bike, so I scheduled an appointment. We went thru the Guru process, as well as some specific questions about my riding preferences and training/racing goals. When I came back for my follow-up, the bike was a perfect match. My Orbea is pink! My position is aggressive and aerodynamic, but still comfortable! Couldn't be more pleased.
Thank you Alan! You are so nice!
Great store. Great people. I got my new tri bike there. It needed a couple of minor adjustments over a couple of weeks (not due to errors on their part, but due to my preferences) and they took care of me every time. Also a great place for advice - they are all triathletes that know their stuff.
The staff is pretty helpful here. I bought a saddle from them and they were able to answer all my questions.
I am a Cat 3 racer with tens of thousands of miles under my belt. For about a year I have been struggling with my fit so I decided to follow the recommendations of my teammates and visit Podium Multisport. I was very happy I did. Most of my fitting was done by Andy, although both Andy and Matt looked at me and consulted one another - thus I got two fitters for the price of one.
Would recommend Podium for all cycling and triathlon needs.. and Matt specifically for bike fitting and re-fitting.
The shop was clean and well organized. Matt and Ed and the rest of the guys there are friendly, knowledgeable, and not overly pushy on sales. They truly want you to be happy on the bike buy.
One thing I thought was significant was realizing the amount of rocking side to side that I did on the bike. Since I rarely ride a trainer I don't really notice it. But while I was doing the fit it was quite apparent. Andy knew exactly what was wrong and silenced the rocking motion by making various adjustments.
I highly recommend Podium. My experience shows that they are just as proficient in fitting road racers as they are in fitting triathletes.
I felt noticeable relief immediately after the fit was done and simply felt more comfortable on the bike. After a couple of months I went back for a follow-up appointment. Since I have bought a new saddle in the mean time (which was installed at another shop) some of the rocking motion reappeared. Andy immediately noticed that although the saddle was installed well it was slightly off and was causing me to rock again. He promptly corrected it with a small adjustment. I was impressed by his ability to spot something so quickly and make exactly the adjustments needed in such a way that I could really notice the difference. It says something about knowing what you are doing versus simply trusting the computers.
