"Todd-
The real world results are beyond words - pretty amazing!!!!! I rode a short ride this AM and felt the best I have in 15 years... Next day rode 55 miles tempo and afterwards had absolutely the best run I've had off the bike in 15 years.
My legs were so fresh I ran a very comfy 1:15 at 7:20 and easily couldve went for another 30 min no problem
TTBikeFit rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"-DM, in-person fit

"Hi Todd!
Just wanted to tell you how things are going with my bike. Short story - It feels perfect! I just feel that this is soooo much better than before! A few test on the road, tells me that my treshold watts has increased by about 50! So once more - perfect! Once again - Thank You!"-JM, online fit (Norway)

"Hi Todd,
Had my first race this weekend. Used your recommended settings... They were a great improvement. Had decent power. Finished 3rd in my age category ...(State champs) and even won the Omnium GC for the weekend in my Cat." -AS, Road Racer, online fit
NEW!
"Hi Todd,
Hope all is well. Thanks again for all your help with my guru, it is super comfortable...and fast!! I won my ag and qualified for Kona in St. Croix a few weeks ago, so things are off to a great start." -HE, in-person fit
(after a 2nd-place AG finish at a big 70.3) "I have no doubt that the bike and the bike fit contributed! It was more than I had hoped or dreamed for... when I got on the bike I felt like I had unleashed my "inner Chrissie Wellington" - especially on the section with the tailwind, when I was going around 25mph and passing people like crazy. That was fun!
Thanks again!" - SF, online fit
"Todd,
I completed the Half this past Sat and wanted to let you know how it went. The course was flat but it was an extremely windy day. I did the 56 miles in 2:32:56 (22.0 mph) which got me 49th overall (out of 443) and 1st (by 5 mins) in my age group! I was very comfortable in the new position at that pace for that long...In the wind I felt like I was just cutting through it and was flying by everyone else (I started in one of the last waves.) I felt as though they were struggling in the wind and I was so aero that it did not bother me. I just want to thank you for your service and help and to let you know that it definitely helped me!" -JS, online fit
"Hi Todd,
I took the new bike position and saddle out on a 3 hour ride. It was very windy that day. I felt lower and like I could slice through the wind better. No problems with power output at all. I definitely feel like I'm faster in this new position, but will test it out next week on one of my routes where I've timed myself.
Lastly, the Adamo Typhoon seat ROCKS!!! No pain at all---which is a miracle!
Thanks for all your help and advice!" -KB, in-person fit
"Hi Todd,
I got the Adamo seat 2 days ago, and rode about 35 miles on it yesterday- WOW! What a difference. I followed the instructions on your website, and that's all I had to do. No comfort issues at all!" - JD, online fit
"Hi Todd, I just wanted to give you some feedback after a long ride today. The fit and bike felt fantastic! The set-up seemed to really conserve my leg energy and I felt crazy power even riding into the wind. I ran some pick-ups after the ride and my legs were far less exhausted than usual. We took turns pulling coming in by four-town farms and I actually hit 28 mph on my pull (with the tail wind of course). The last thing my friend heard from me before I pulled away was "woo hoo!"
-DL, in-person fit
"Todd, I was out for a 3 hour ride today. The fit felt great and I loved
the saddle... Since the group was riding draft
free, I was in my aerobars most of the ride and the greater drop was
really beneficial in the wind.
Thank you! Thank You!" -HA, in-person fit
"I did a 3 hour ride yesterday, everything felt great, bike felt good, fit felt great, I think things are going to work fantastic on that frame... Thanks for your time on this, I would never go anywhere else for a fit! During yesterday's ride, I felt like I was positioned on the bike to be able to put out great power."
-RW, in-person fit (repeat customer, new bike)
"Todd, I want to thank you again for the fit and the extra comfort you provide with knowing what the hell you're doing. As riders/athletes we depend on a lot of outside knowledge and help mechanically. You have it. You will see me again and you will get many referrals from me." - RD, in-person fit
"Hey Todd
Just wanted to touch base and say thanks again! I rode my bike on my trainer for half the night on Wednesday! Still smiling - just can't believe the difference!" -GW, in-person fit
"Hello Todd, I repeated the IM Busselton Western Australia last weekend. Amazing results. Compared to last year I increased speed from 30 to 34kph, and decreased average power from 141 to 126 watts. Even though there was less wind this year, I cannot believe the power figures, but I certainly believe the speed! And the increased speed was not to the detriment of the run, which I decreased by 12 minutes.
So thanks very much for your help." - NT, online fit
"I rode my bike with the new saddle and bar heights last Saturday at a faster pace with less watts over the same course as the previous weekends. Needless to say I am happy with the outcome from the fitting." - AS, in-person fit
"Todd, Greetings. I wanted to give you an update on IM 70.3 Worlds. As you may recall, I had switched frames from a Javelin to a Cervelo and could not seem
to get my position right. Your analysis and counsel made a huge difference. My bike split at Worlds this year was 2:17 (24.5 mph).
The position felt great. I still have some hip issues running off the bike, so my run was less than spectacular. However, when it was all
said and done, I finished 5th in my age group. Thanks again."
-LT online fit
"I did the race tonight, and it was the best I have ever done. Super fast 26.5 average speed with lots of corners to sprint
out of. I have never felt so good in that race, ( it's a weekly crit ) and it was a fast night. I have no back pain and my legs have
adjusted to the new pedals so far perfectly. So thanks so much for all the stuff you did. But I am not going to tell my buddies about you.
I don't want to give them the same advantage. Haha!"
- J.W. in-person road fit
"People are starting to ask me how I improved my cycling this year. I’m torn between giving them your name or keeping you a secret!!!!!! No point in giving the competition the edge. Seriously, I’ve told everyone who asked about TT and I hope they can take advantage.
Just for the record, my cadence was 97 for the race; up from 93-94 that I have been seeing, and I know that is why I had such a strong run off the bike. I’m really happy with the position!" - A.R., in-person fit
"Hi Todd, I wanted to wait to get a few rides in before I could give a definitive answer on the fit you did for me. All I can say is…it is fantastic!!! Just the few tweaks you did and recommending the shorter stem has made huge improvements for me. I did an 83 mile ride today and the pain that I use to get between my shoulders was almost non existant, my leg power and hips felt great and I noticed a positive feeling in the adjustment to my cleats.
Thanks for helping someone that is just starting out…you have attributed to my personal biking success.
Thanks for your expertise and I look forward to my next fit with you on my next bike!!" - R.W., in-person fit
"Hey Todd,
Thanks again for the advice. You've hit the nail on the head once again. Bike feels great, and I've probably added about 1-1.5 mph to my average over the old tt bike. I didn't know that a bike change and a tweak here and there could make such a difference. Thanks again." - J.D. online fit
"I could NOT have been that fast if not for your fit. I was one of the few guys in the top 500 to negative split the bike (if not the only one) and it got seriously windy out there on lap two. I lost count of the number of times that I was passing people at
like 200 watts (falling asleep) doing 23-25mph as they pedalled furiously... My bike TSS was the same as placid last year and I was 13 mins faster. Nuff said.
-Coach Patrick, Endurance Nation, qualifies for Kona at IM CDA! (see his fit video on the home page)
"Hey Todd,
I have been meaning to just send you quick note and let you know how thrilled I am with my bike fit!! I did the Mooseman International race a few weeks ago and I felt great and I was really pleased with my results! My back has been fine (no stiffness) now with my new pedals and aero bars.
I have told a number of people about you and have directed them to your web site...Anyway.... I wanted to follow up with you and let you know that I feel your fitting was excellent!!"
- C.K. in person fit
"A @#%$&*! Human Missile. That bike and fit rocks. Just did my local 90' loop -- on a windy day -- in 82 mins. :) 22mph is the new cruise speed. Killer."
-Coach Patrick, Endurance Nation, crushes the bike in Kona with a 5:18! (see his fit video on the home page)
"Dear Todd: Perhaps you recall doing a tri bike fit for my wife on her 51-cm Dual earlier this summer. She’s been very happy with the fit and has gotten very fast. The ride in her first 1/2 iron race was a great success. My fit worked out really well, too."
- D.M. online fit
"Todd-
We took our bikes to Cincinnati Saturday and did practice ironman and half-ironman rides. I had a fabulous 56 mile ride! I felt like I could keep going forever! My position was very comfortable. I don't feel "squished" like I did before. The seat was perfect. My neck was fairly comfortable as well. I was able to do a 40 minute practice run off the bike as well.
Thank you very much for this service!" - B.S., online fit
"Todd,
Wanted to let you know since your help (fit) I have done two tri's, splitting 1st and 2nd place on each of the bike legs.....I attribute a lot of that to your help."
- F. F., online fit
"Thanks again. This has been a wonderful experience and I will be recommending you to friends I have here." - C.B., online fit
"Thanks again Todd. Just wanted to let you know that I rode a 25 mile 'loosen up' ride yesterday (race is tomorrow) and the bike felt great! I felt like I was getting power and torque throughout the full rotation, with hardly any fatigue! I'm stoked..."
-J.D. online fit
"Hi Todd,
...loving it. My cadence is up to about 92-94rpm from 88-90rpm and it seems to help with the bike to run transition.
I can’t prove empirically that it’s a faster position but if I was to go by feel I would say definitely. Thanks again for the fit and all the advice. TT bike fit rules!"
- A. R., in-person fit
"Todd,
I had some positive results this past weekend at St. Anthony's. I was wrong that my previous best was a 22.5 at 40K bike. It was actually a 22.0... However, this weekend I was able to average 22.9 mph on the fast St. A's course. I know I'm in great shape, but I also know much more is due to your help in getting more aero on the bike. I really felt that the wind was almost a non-factor for this race.
Thanks for the help. I feel fortunate to have found you and got such a great boost without killing myself in training, although I have been doing plenty of that too.
You know, its funny. I own a set of race wheels and an aero helmet that cost plenty, and could barely tell the difference in race results (although seemed to improve some). Changing the body position was much more cost effective."
-K.M., online fit
"Todd,
I took my bike out for a 50 mile ride today and all I can say is that I cannot believe how much faster I am. I rode easy and averaged over 21mph! 6 months ago I rode the same course on my old bike, with amost exactly the same effort level/conditions, and today I was over 15 mins quicker!! I noticed having to make more of an an effort to raise my neck to see ahead, and my neck now feels a bit stiff, but apart from that, the position is very comfortable.
I just cannot believe how much faster the position is. I never would have believed it."
-W.B, U.K, online fit
"Thanks so much for checking out my fit again. I think you made your money ten-fold...The software you have and the expertise you have in bike fitting has helped me tremendously. You have totally surpassed my expectations, and I will definitely refer you to my friends."
-M.B., PROFESSIONAL TRIATHLETE, online fit
"Hej Todd -
I have done my first race in the new position. It went really well!
I have done the race before - a 30 km flat course. I cut off 3 min and 10 sek from my best time……….
I’m in better shape than ever, but still … the fitting has done some (I would say 1 min at least)
The best part was that I felt really good at the bike, had no problems at all staying down in the aero bars.
I’m about to get a new road bike, I will be back when I have it so we can do at fitting on that one to."
- H.H, Denmark, Road cyclist, online fit
"Todd;
What a difference! I got out yesterday for a good ride and the bike felt great, legs felt great, back felt great - a big difference from before. There will probably be a few others looking you up sooner or later. They are all crazy not to.
Thanks for your help." -T.E., in-person fit
"Todd,
Cannot tell you how much better I am riding these days. Life is indeed fantastic. Thanks for the great fitting and for all of your personal encouragement and very professional assistance!!
" -J.S., in-person fit
"Todd, Many thanks for all your help and advice. You wouldn't believe how good it is to talk to someone who really knows their stuff."
-W.B., U.K., online fit
"Todd, I wanted to again thank you. Today I did 45 miles in my new postion and it felt great!!! I have passed your website along to a bunch of my friends...I am so happy with your service it begs the question what else do you offer..."
- P.A., NYC, online fit
"Hi Todd, Just thought I would give you what appears to be good news on the Tri Bike fit. After I changed the bike layout today I decided to have another go at it with the new bike position. In December 2007 I managed a 52:40 on my monthly fitness test, last week I got this down to a 51:59 which was my best time in two years. This evening I shaved 3 minutes of that time and upped my average power output about 30 watts as well!"
- G.M., U.K., online fit
"Hi Todd - I really like the new bike fit. Able to do the one leg drills in the aero position for 30 seconds in a big gear whereas prior to fit I could only do it for about 5 secs. In today's 50 min. work out I was definitely much more comfortable in the aero position. I usually feel at least some slight knee patella pain while on the trainer and yesterday I didn't feel any. That's great."
- D.G., CT, in-person fit
"Todd~ Thank you SO much for the tips! Really, I have no idea and to have someone lending a hand is a tremendous help. There is so much to know and so many mistakes to make~ I appreciate it tremendously...It was really great to meet you and your family, thank you so much for taking the time to explain everything. It was totally worth the trip."
- J.C., CT, in-person fit
"Thank for a very productive fitting session Saturday. Your professionalism and patience are sincerely appreciated.
I have told several people about your service as I was very impressed by your low key, extremely knowledgeable, customer driven approach."
-JS, personal fit
"Thanks for all your patience and persistence... Lower back was fine...
Thanks for the quick response, and your encouraging me to take the leap and go lower; My bike was super comfy [at IM FL], an easy platform to execute a solid (for me) bike leg, setting me up for a strong run, one that I'm proud of. Thanks for all your help and support in this process." - BR, online fit
"Wow!!! Man, that is some great feedback. Thank you. Very impressive service."
- KB, online fit
"...it seems as if I am really flat and putting out some good watts...Thanks again for all your ideas and help." -PR, personal fit
"The Bike felt great [during a 1/2 IM race]!!!! I was in the AERO for 95% of the ride... My legs and position felt great through the day... I was able to climb strongly while staying relaxed and not holding the pads..." - JP, personal fit
"Thank you very much for the fit...
I was racing this Sunday and I felt much better on the bike than ever before, so I guess something must have been right." - LF, online fit
"Still feeling much more powerful on the bike with these changes and also seeing the power while riding with the PowerTap. Thanks so much for your help with all this." - JB, personal fit
"Thanks for the great work. It has given me a lot better insight to position on the bike... The [sprint] race was good....quicker by 3 mins on the bike!" - MP, online fit
"The fit feels awesome!" -DW, personal fit
"I want to thank you once again for your time, patience and company. I finally had an opportunity to take a longer ride with the new settings. I can certainly feel additional power in my thighs on the downstroke."- TT, personal fit
"Hey Todd thanks for that, it makes sense when you go through things! I never did like the way my back looked on the bike, but was'nt sure what needed adjusting!" - AB, online fit
