Connect to Perform

After seeing two other bike fitters, I went to Phil and, let's say, the third time was the charm.Previously I was very uncomfortable on the bike and could never sustain long periods in the TT position. I also suffered an injury that Phil took into careful consideration.After the fit, I was far more comfortable in the TT position and found I had more power than previously. Rather than constantly popping up out of the bars, I could ride the bike how I wanted to.Regarding working with the injury, Phil treated it like a process; he understood there wasn't a quick fix and was patient to ensure a solution.After Phil's fit, I was more confident and comfortable, which made riding my TT much more fun.I would highly recommend Phil for a bike fit.P.s. He's also a really good triathlon coach too!

I purchased a new TT bike and was having extreme discomfort being in the saddle for any longer than a hour, leading to tingling and numbness in the feet and neck pain. I tried a different saddle but no luck. I took my bike to Connect to Perform at MC Cyclery and had an incredible thorough and supported experience with Phil Hayes to get me set up. Going through the process, my dimensions were pretty tricky being 6ft with very long legs and wide sitbones but Phil was amazing supportive and reassuring that we’d find solutions to make it work for me. The fit helped me to secure the best saddle for my composition - bi saddle - and got me in a much more stable, even position. My riding experience after was completely different; I was able to get into a good agressive TT position and generate more power comfortably over longer period of time without the burning lower pain I’d previously experienced. Highly recommend the studio!!

Thanks so much for your time Phil.I've bought a new bike early January and started to have knee and saddle pain after one hour on my bike. I went to the physio and he advised to do a bike fitting.It was so worth it !Phil took the time to make all the changes to my bike position & saddle to make sure I was comfortable on the bike. He was really patient with me and he also explained all the steps and the reasons why I was getting pain.One week later, I've done my longest bike ride ever and it was pain free ! Thanks again !

Did a bike fit with Phil on both my TT and road bike and the service was excellent. Was having lower back and knee issues on my bike prior to the fit but with adjustments made by Phil, these were alleviated almost immediately. Since the fit, I feel a lot more comfortable on both bikes and will happily stay down on my TT bars for long periods of time and can see I am generating more power.Phil has great attention to detail and you can come back with feedback and get tweaks which ensures the fit is as good as can possibly be.Overall, a great service and would definitely recommend anyone to get a bike fit here.

Took my road bike in for a bike fit recently and also had tri-bars fitted for an upcoming race. Phil did a great job, very thorough, and put me into a much better position. I've noticed a real difference time-wise and am generally more comfortable on the longer rides. Followed up with a service and they did a great job with that too. Thanks to Phil and the MC team!

Prebike bike fit:I felt really uncomfortable on my TT after about an hour (it was my first time owning one, so wasn't sure what to expect). I had shoulder pain/knee pain and I just didn't feel right at all.Post bike fit:I was way more comfortable and powerful! I saw instant improvements. I did a 40km TT the next day, shaving 6 minutes of my PB. My overall position on the bike changed completely, my glutes were generating way more power than before, and the nagging shoulder pain was gone.I would highly recommend a fit to anyone! It makes a massive difference to your comfort, power and efficiency regardless of what type of riding you do.
