From Fit to Frame Design
Whether you're 5'2" or 6'7" or anywhere
else on the scale of human geometry, we can put you on your dream frame.
Our bike fitter:
 | Gathers information about your prior riding
experience and your goals for the future. |
| Measures you. |
| Dials you into a position that is both comfortable and efficient. |
| Helps you to decide whether you want to go custom or House Blend (standard geometry). |
| Helps you select the level of frame that will best suit
your needs. |
| If you decide on custom, suggests a frame
design. |
| Submits all this information to your frame
designer, David Lynskey. |
David then:
| Digests the information submitted by our bike fitter. |
| Interviews you personally. |
| Based on input from you and your bike
fitter, creates the frame design that will deliver your perfect ride. |
Your Preliminary Bike Fit
Your purchase begins with a scheduled bike
fitting with Justin. You can expect the process to take up to
two hours.
- Please bring your current bike and riding gear with you,
even if you're not certain of your current fit.
- Justin
will take all the key measurements, discuss your expectations and your cycling
history, suggest a frame design, and submit this information to LPD.
- With David Lynskey's input, Chris
Lynskey draws a preliminary frame design, which he
returns to us for your review, and for your interview with David.
Your Interview with David Lynskey
Your next step will be a phone interview with
master frame-builder David Lynskey. Some aspects of this may seem like a repeat of your Bike Center
interview, but for a frame designer, there's no substitute for first-hand
information. David uses the preliminary frame design drawing to tailor
his discussion with you, to ensure that you are getting exactly what you
want.
After your interview:
- David has Chris prepare a final draft of
the frame drawing.
- We review the drawing.
- Once you
have approved the drawing yourself, the construction of your frame
begins.
Your Post-Assembly Fit
The final step is another session with Justin. Using both the road and a stationary
trainer, we fine-tune seat height and handlebar position, before you head out on
your new bike.
