Velomotion is the premier Retul bike fit studio in the UK having worked with the company for many years.
Many bike fit studio staff in the UK and abroad have been trained at Velomotions premises and are now spreading the Retul word across the globe.
In addition to fits and training carried out at our premises in Milton Keynes we have also travelled widely to train other fitters and to perform fits for the great and the good of the cycling world.
Here are a few pictures we have collected on our way to let you see just how hard our job can be.

Retül Advanced Motion Analysis Certification & Positioned for Speed Course - Manchester - July 2014
Retül Advanced Motion Analysis Certification & Positioned for Speed Course - Manchester - July 2014
I attended both of these courses at the home of British Cycling to improve my knowledge of the foot/pedal interface and to gain a better understanding of the effect that position and equipment has on rider aerodynamics. Since aero drag is 80-90% of the overall resistance affecting a rider and roughly 80% of this aero drag is the rider, the remainder being the bike. Aerodynamics are important!
