As cyclists, our pursuit of our passion for pedalling means we all get aches and pains from time to time. Some – like hitting trees or being hit by cars – are part of the risk of being a cyclist. Others, such as those brought on by riding a bike that's not optimised to suit Your shape and size can be avoided with a little help from our new bike fitting service.

Using the latest measurement system from Holland, we can take your vital statistics and calculate a riding position that will maximise comfort and performance while minimising risk of unnecessary pain and injury.

So if you've experienced problems such lower back pain, knee or leg problems, neck ache or sitting complaints, our bike fitting guru, Rob, can determine adjustments to the set up of your bike that could make a vital difference.

Equally, if you're looking to buy a new bike, the bike fitting service will guide you towards bikes that will optimize your sitting position and best suit your physique.

The service costs £35 – and this is fully refundable against any bike purchase. It's also a drop in the ocean when compared to the cost of a series of visits to an osteopath or physiotherapist!

To learn more about this new service – or to book an appointment – drop by the shop and speak to Rob, call him on 0117 929 2151 or email rob@mud-dock.co.uk. Alternatively you can learn more by visiting the official bike fitting website via the link below.

Cycling ergo trainers used to be something you kept in the garage and used when it was too wet or too cold to venture outside. As a new demo centre for top ergo trainer brand Tacx you can now try and be amazed by products that will give you a reason to train and stay inside whatever the weather is doing.

Tacx i-Magic: The i-Magic features an electromagnetic brake system that seamlessly matches everything you experience on the road. You will feel rolling, air and gradient resistance as well as being aware of whether you are riding on smooth tarmac, over a rough forest track, through sand or over wet grass. What's more you can even hook the trainer up to your computer for an amazing virtual reality training session.

Tacx Cosmos: The Cosmos belongs at the very top in terms of training. It is a super power trainer for professionals and amateurs who want to get the most out of their training. This high-end ergo trainer has a very powerful motor brake for true-to-life simulations of descents and climbs. The resistance meticulously emulates what is experienced on the road. Climbs feel true to life and running downhill the rear wheel is driven so you can even stop pedalling!

To book an appointment to test a Tacx ergo trainer, drop by the shop and speak to Rob, call him on 0117 929 2151 or email rob@mud-dock.co.uk. Alternatively you can learn more by visiting the Tacx and Tacx virtual realities via the links below.
