Great place. I was deciding between 3 road bikes. Booked on line and came in soon after. They took a look at how I ride outside, took a few key measurements and then fit me on the frames. Gave lots of helpful tips about form, biomechanics and other suggestions. Very experienced team. Will be going back in a few weeks with my new bike.

You should stop using other places to get your bikes tickled and use Fulcycle. Congratulations - you need look no further.
I’ve had three bike fits over two bikes with Thomas as my fitness has improved from being an overweight man with a bike and a sore knee to a cyclist who can do big endurance events and walk the next day. It transformed my experience of riding from “how much of this can I tolerate” to “how much of this do I have time for today”. I am pretty convinced he’s actually Gandalf after a beard trim.
Kiro is an excellent mechanic and possibly the world’s most patient man. He’s worked on both my road bikes and they are running so well now they are used by Rolex to calibrate the machines they use to calibrate their watch mechanisms. He will always explain what he’s done, why he’s done it, give options on parts to suit budgets. He’s ridden the emotional rollercoaster of tubeless tyres with me and for that he deserves a medal.
On top of all that Thomas and Kiro are both excellent fun, offer a decent cup of coffee and chat and will happily refill a bottle or two mid-ride. Look no further than this hidden gem of a place - get them to fit and fix your bike.

Popped in for some brake pads and gear cable. Easy find, easy parking, friendly and quick service. Recommended.

If you’re considering whether a bike fit is right for you, don’t hesitate. Thomas has completely transformed my experience on the bike. I am now more comfortable than ever and have increased my average speed remarkably.
Adding to the above, Thomas has a refreshingly inclusive approach to helping you gain knowledge while maintaining a no silly questions attitude.
They are definitely my choice for all future cycling needs.
Thanks again guys!

I cannot thank Thomas enough for his help.
I am the doctor accompanying a charity bike ride through Vietnam in a few months time but was approaching my training with a fair amount of trepidation as I had to stop cycling in the past due to patello-femoral syndrome (caused by commuting on an ill-fitting bicycle in London) and any attempts to get on a bike since then have caused it to flare up. Luckily, a friend suggested that I go and see Thomas for a bike fitting.
I must admit that I was a bit embarrassed about being such a cycling novice but Thomas was patient, friendly and helpful.
Not only did I emerge from Fulcycle with brilliantly fitting mtb shoes and cleats - enabling me to cycle with NO knee pain for the first time in 15 years - but Thomas also gave me lots of extra tips and tricks to help my 800km ride go smoothly.
Thank you Thomas!

I received an excellent bike fit from Thomas at Fulcycle. Thomas' holistic and person centred approach is not only refreshing, but productive for the rider. The open and honest consultation process (over a great coffee) is very useful in establishing the 'goal' of the fit. Thomas considers previous injuries, cycling goals, and lifestyle circumstances when working with you and your bike. This underlines the importance of being open and honest with your fitter to get the best out of the experience. Thomas' knowledge is excellent, and has helped me to feel more at one with my bike through an extensive step by step fit process. The constant dialogue between rider and fitter really helped to establish why the changes made would help to achieve the overall 'goal' of the fit mentioned above.
While I cannot comment on the long term benefits of the fit yet as I have not ridden long enough to comment, I have no doubts that it will improve my interactions with the bike. I thoroughly recommend Thomas at Fulcycle.

Arrived at Fulcycle on a soggy Saturday morning for a bike fit. Met the team and was grateful for the hot tea. Thomas carried out my bike fit and explained the process in detail. He was very thorough, attentive to my issues, and it was a pleasure getting to know him and the team. They are all very friendly and I felt at ease during the process. I was initially a little sceptical about a bike fit but decided to take the plunge and apply science to try to improve my comfort and performance on the bike. After an analysis of my flexibility (or lack of), Thomas analysed me on the bike and made the necessary adjustments which included bars, saddle and cleats. Was delighted with the new setup and I felt a whole lot better cycling back home. Was also given exercises, frame / reach measurements and more. Really recommend the team. Money well spent.
