Other Services

We offer many other services that address all aspects of your training and racing to ensure you achieve your maximum potential and goals. We ensure we are up to speed with the latest research so we can offer these services which are essential components of a successful training plan. These services are for all levels of rider – whether you a club rider or have raced at the provincial or national level.

Dynamic Bike Positioning

We have over 40 years of experience fitting hundreds of bikes from professional and national team riders for performance, to everyday commuters and injury prevention. We use the latest research in biomechanics utilizing power metre and pedal stork analysis to improve riding efficiency and economy.

We will fit you on your bike to suit your needs. Your fit will ensure you have comfort and balance in power transfer and pedaling efficiency. Our bike fitting sessions includes precise shoe and cleat interface positioning for Road, Gravel, MTB or Triathlon shoes and all brands of pedals based on your own unique physiology, training and racing targets.

Our bike fitting session offers fitting and set-up for all kinds of bikes including: Road, TT, Triathlon, Ironman, Gravel, MTB, Track Endurance mass start, track Individual or Team Pursuit (IP-TP) and Track Sprinting.

Duration: Up to 2 hours (120 Minutes)

Cost: $295.00 – one bike per session

$60 for each additional 30 minutes

If you have more than one bike we can cross fit between them to minimize fitting discrepancy, maximize riding economy and minimize risk of injury when you move from one bike to another.

Cross Fit for each additional bike up to 90 minutes
Cost: $195.00

Note: your primary bike must be fitted individually prior to cross fitting session.

Wingate Test (Anaerobic Power Test)

This is a maximal power test of the anaerobic energy system. It measures peak power and capacity for the required duration of six to 60 seconds as well as the rate of power decrement. This test will show your sprinting power and it interprets the general sprint or aerobic abilities.

Duration: 60 minutes
Cost: Contact us for details

VO2 Max

While this is not a cycling specific test it is used for runners and triathletes. It measures the rate your muscles can utilize oxygen to produce aerobic energy and is the most accurate way to measure aerobic fitness.

Duration: 90 minutes
Cost: Contact us for details

Aerodynamic Set up

An efficient personalized and custom aerodynamic set up will enhance your performance and ensure the lowest drag without compromising your power transfer and bike handling.

Using power meters and the latest technology on an indoor track, we examine power data files modify your position accordingly. This includes dynamic bike positioning.

Duration: 5-10 hours

Maximal Aerobic Power (MAP), Sub-Maximal Aerobic Power (SMAP), and Lactate Profiling

Maximal is the peak value that can be achieved by correlating cycling variables. SMAP refers to identifying the peak work rate or power that an athlete can sustain using primarily aerobic energy systems (Oxidative System). It is different from a VO2max test since it focuses on sustainable power, and maximal oxygen consumption is not measured. MAP or SMAP test is recommended for all cyclists using heart rate monitors and/or power metres to measure training intensity. Those tests use established cycling protocol using the latest testing equipment and technology available to us. It will determine your aerobic fitness on the bike and your lactate will be sampled at the end of each stage of the test.

Lactate is the by-product of glucose utilization by muscle cells and has significant impact on athletic performance. There are limits to how the body can clear lactate and use as a new source of energy (fuel) within muscle cells. It is important to determine the lower and higher threshold (LT1 and LT2) levels of the aerobic system based on your lactate profile. (Both MAP and SMAP tests will identify LT1 and LT2 power and heart rate levels and will be included in the test report). Results from the test could be utilized by your coach to identify and build your specific training zones power and HR based on your individual physiology.

(Note: developing training zones and energy utilization are not part of test report – but are available upon request).

Duration: 60-90 minutes
Cost: $260.00
Developing training zones based on test results: $60.00

Muscular Strength, Core Stability, Core Endurance and Flexibility Profiling

We develop a training program based on these four components.

Duration: 60 minutes

Body Composition

Body fat is an important part of a cyclist’s overall performance, so to determine overall fitness we measure watts per kilogram. Measurement of skin folds is an accurate way to assess the amount of subcutaneous fat on the body and over time is an effective way to determine if weight gain or loss is fat or fat-free mass (i.e. muscle, bone). We use this information to help you optimize your training and nutrition plan and to ensure your body composition is optimized for competition and health.
