Peak Cycles Professional Bicycle Fit Studio - Fits performed by George Mullen 
 THE FITTER: George Mullen
George has eleven years of fitting experience and has completed over 3000 fits.
He has completed Serotta Elements™ and Serotta Advanced Fit™ courses as well as Specialized™ BG fit school,
designed by World renowned biomechanist Dr. Andy Pruitt.
What makes George unique from many other
fitters is simple - experience. Just about anyone can take a class on bike fits and get "certified"
but they will not be able to see and interpret important elements that George can.
This extensive experience is what makes George a true fit specialist. He has the experience, the tools and the
advanced training to handle any fit scenario.
GEORGE'S PHILOSOPHY: The cyclist is the primary fit driver.
Assessment is the key to George's fits. Understanding the athlete's needs are by far the most important
component in the fit. Assessing these needs and body dimensions are the basis of the fit. Simple questions
help drive the fit.
What are your body's dimensions? Are you long in the inseam or long in the torso?
What is your injury history?
What does your flexibility look like?
What is your sustainable core strength like?
 THE METHOD: Using an eleven element functional movement screen, George will learn facts about you as an athlete that will guide us in finding the most suitable fit for your needs as a cyclist.
Comfort = Efficiency = Performance
THE FITS:
3 DIMENSIONAL FIT
Detailed personal profile interview (cycling history, injuries, nagging pains, goals, etc.)
Functional movement screen (in-depth body flexibility testing and assessment)
Pre-fit assessment of your current riding position on your bike
XYZ plane adjustments (X=horizontal/length reach adjustment, Y=vertical/height seat adjustment, Z=frontal area adjustment)
Pedal/cleat adjustment(includes verus/valgus cleat shimming as necessary for pedaling alignment)
DYNAMIC 3 DIMENSIONAL FIT (includes detailed Computrainer™ session)
Includes all of the elements of the 3 Dimensional Fit
PLUS - Extensive power assessment pre and post fit using Computrainer™ ergometer and software
(measures power output, heart rate efficiency and detailed Spin Scan™)
Why the Computrainer? George uses the Racermate® Computrainer™ ergometer and coaching software so he
can measure the true performance enhancement derived from the comprehensive fit. This data, when
interpreted correctly, not only makes the rider more efficient and powerful, it makes the rider
more comfortable. No other fitting solution is this comprehensive. We take real power data
and make you a better more comfortable rider. Plus, the use of the Computrainer Spin Scan™ program will enable George to
achieve the proper torque angles making your spin much smoother and powerful. Torque angles during
pedaling is extrememly important and often overlooked by most fitting solutions.
This comprehensive fit is accomplished on a Serotta® Size cycle custom equipped with a RacerMate Computrainer™.
We duplicate (down to the millimeter)
the geometry and parts (i.e. saddle, bars, crank length etc) used on the athlete's bike. We can make
small changes without stopping for long periods of time to change out parts, thus maintaining continuity
in performance. All of these adjustments are accomplished while the rider is pedaling at set percentage
of maximum heart rate. This is a true dynamic fit - we mimic real riding in our studio.
After finding our ideal position we then extrapolate the numbers off the size cycle and apply the true
dynamic fit to your existing bike.
Looking for new bike? If you are looking to purchase a new bike, this fit will allow you to
buy the correct bike size - the first time. We call this method "FINDING YOUR FIT IN SPACE", or in
other words, working backwards. Finding the fit first choosing the ideal frame, stem, bar sizes can
save time and energy better spent elsewhere.
