Saddles

We’ve said that the Bike Fit starts with the feet, then moves on to the bottom and then to the hands.  We stock parts for your feet.  We stock parts to hold your saddle and handlebars in the correct position.  We stock handlebars.  But we don’t currently stock saddles.  Why is that?

 

With the part types we do sell, a relatively small stock will suit 95% of cyclists.  Handlebars do have a significant degree of customer preference, but there are many different areas on the bar for you to find an acceptable position, which is not the case for your bottom and the saddle.

 

What we will do as part of your Bike Fit is establish whether your current saddle is appropriate for you and if not, make suggestions for alternatives for you to buy and fit separately.

​

This is an area we'll monitor carefully and if we can determine a solution that will benefit our customers then we will implement it.  It comes back to the second sentence in our Shop section: "Precision Cycle Fit’s primary function is to sell expertise, not parts.  Therefore, we will not sell you anything that you won't benefit from".
