Does anyone know of anyone who does a bike fit in Cork,or even somewhere in Munster.Seems if all bike fits are in Dublin,to far to travel with the bike.

Give The Edge on North Main street a shout. Its the tri shop across the road from those big tracksuit 'sports' shops.
I think you get your money back if you buy a bike off them.

Thanks full gas and ajk24,I worry that the bike I got is slightly too small.Some say its fine others its to small.Badly need a expert so I must give Mr Dwyer a call.I think the bike is justabout ok,but a have this nagging feeling in my head.

You should also try Noel Holmes in West End Cycles (021)4873804, Ballincollig, Co. Cork for the bike fitting.

IMO Noel really knows his stuff about bikes, doing a proper fitting for you would be no bother.
I remember the day he opened the shop about 20 years ago. He still goes out of his way to help to help people out & steer them in the right direction even if it means him losing potentially business. Yes he does a lot of run of the mill bikes but knows the high end stuff well too.
Judging by the trophy collection in the attic in the shop (it was nearly 20 years ago since I saw them) I'd say he knew how to move on a bike.

Okay, stupid question - what's a bike fit? I'm guessing it's some kind of professional tailoring & adjustments to a bike for an individual
