Testimonials
A long time ago, I chose my bikefitter based on the 3D mapping technology they used for the fit; I got lucky and the person fitting me was fantastic. Now I realise that the fitter's knowledge is much more valuable than the tools they are using. It's easy to get hung up on the lasers or the pressure pads that measure the width of your sitbones, but I'd rather let my customers' results and kind words speak for themselves.

Dear Sam
Thank you for making me the cyclist I hoped to be. I asked you to help me be able to cycle 50k there 2-4 times a week and thanks to the bike fit, I can! I have sung your praises to many ladies and hope they do the sensible thing and contact you!
Many thanks again.
[The bikefit] made a substantial difference. I’m roughly 3.5 – 4kph faster than I was before the changes and I feel much more comfortable on the bike.
Now I can finally enjoy, rather than endure, my road bike.
PS: I should probably have done this several years ago
I have used Sam for a fit on both my TT and road bikes and was very happy with both fits. I had an increase in power and comfort with my new TT position and achieved a PB in my 70.3 race a few weeks later.
I have recommended Sam and his bike-fit to a few of my friends as it was a simple and really thorough process and I feel so much more comfortable on the bike now. Since the bike fit I have completed a 154 mile cycle over 2 days with little discomfort.
There is no better way to invest in your riding.
Since I have had a bike fit with Sam, riding my bike is much more comfortable. He is committed to finding a position that works for you and makes riding more enjoyable - without the aches and pains! He also takes the time to explain why he’s making the changes, how it can help and listens carefully to feedback on the changes. His attention to detail and ability to make small changes that make a world of difference on the bike makes Sam a brilliant fitter.
Having recently suffered from lower back pain and sciatica I was encouraged to have a bike fit to see if this would help and turned to Sam. It was an easy and straightforward experience and Sam was able to take on board my needs as well as explaining what he was doing and why. The process showed how important it can be to get a good bike fit to prevent injury as well as give better comfort and performance on the bike.
Since the bike fit, and getting used to the new position, my lower back pain and sciatica have definitely eased and I feel more balanced and comfortable on my bike.

I cannot recommend Sam highly enough.
I came to Sam for a bike fit as I wanted to improve comfort and power on the bike.
The process was really thorough and Sam walked me through the fit step by step. We made some minor adjustments to the bike with Sam recommending parts to buy and fit once home. The end result is faster TT times and more comfort when in the saddle for prolonged periods. Thanks Sam
Had a fantastic bike fit with Sam at Velolife. He is extremely knowledgeable and professional, and explains things really clearly. A much better riding position and experience as a result. Highly recommended!!
Thanks for the fit, it was exactly what I was looking for. I went out for a ride yesterday, and it felt amazing. A little weird for the first mile, and then I didn't think about it again the entire time. Not even a hint of neck pain.
Wholeheartedly recommend Sam and his bike fits. Really thorough process and I feel so much more comfortable on the bike now. Far better way to invest your riding ££.
Highly recommended! I've struggled with knee and ankle problems from playing football and the changes to my riding position have helped enormously.
Just to let you know that after 25 miles yesterday I returned with no sore backside, and no hands aching. Looks like the replacement bars and certainly that saddle you recommended have done the trick. Many thanks again for everything. My cycling life has been transformed and is now completely enjoyable!
I just wanted to let you know that the Domane rode beautifully for the Ride London 100. No aches or pains and the legs lasted the full 103 miles plus the getting across London. I was delighted with this … and pleasantly surprised. It’s has been a long time since I did 100 mies.

Been meaning to send this for some time now but wanted to say thank you for the bike fitting which has completely cleared up my lower back issues. Purchased a beautiful new BMC Teammachine in France which they set up exactly to your measurements and was a dream to ride.

I am very new to road cycling and to be honest did not have a clue what I was doing! I bought a 2nd hand bike and broke it 2nd ride - I was devastated!
So reach out to an old friend, Lee Goodwin (Velolife) to see if he could help. He introduced me to Sam and said he will sort you out! My word Sam did just that!
I went for a bike fitting to make sure I got it right this time and Sam was quite simply brilliant! Took me through the process very patiently, answering all my silly questions and putting me totally at ease the whole time.
He ended up building my new bike after I bought a new frame and he transferred all the old gear on to the new frame and made it perfect! I went on to complete the London to Brighton 3 months later in a good time! I’m now a road cycling fanatic getting out on that bike 3 times a week! It’s perfect and fits perfectly!
Thank you Sam - wouldn’t have got to this stage without your help! Cannot recommend Sam highly enough!
