3D Bike Fit
3D Bike Fit in Tavira — more comfort, more power
Bike fitting here is built for high-performance riders and for people who ride at the weekend. We use 3D biomechanics software, current evidence and your feedback on every change — in Conceição de Tavira.
3D Bike Fit
Aching back, complaining knees, power that never shows up?
Nine times out of ten the problem is not your body — it is your position. A3D bike fit in Tavira measures what happens while you pedal and corrects the bike around that.
- Lower back or neck pain after an hour on the bike
- Pain in the knee, hip or Achilles tendon
- Numbness or tingling in the hands, feet or saddle area
- Feeling unable to put power down, or sliding around on the saddle
- An aero position you cannot actually hold in a race
- A new bike that has never felt like yours
What's included in a 3D Bike Fit
- Opening interview: injury history, goals, training volume and discipline
- Off-bike physical assessment: mobility, stability, asymmetries and limb length
- Measurement of your starting position and video capture while riding
- Analysis in 3D biomechanics software, joint angle by joint angle, while you pedal
- Adjustment of saddle, stem, bars, cleats and contact points to the final position
- A report with every final measurement, so you can reproduce the position on any bike
- A check-up two weeks later, included, to fine-tune whatever your body asks for

Frequently asked questions
What people ask us before booking
Cannot find your question? Call us or send an email — we always reply.
What is a 3D bike fit?
It is a biomechanical assessment where we film and measure your pedal stroke using 3D software while you ride. The software calculates joint angles in motion rather than from still photographs, which lets us adjust saddle, stem, bars and cleats from data. We combine that with an off-bike physical assessment, current scientific evidence and your own feedback on every change.
How much does a bike fit in Tavira cost?
The 3D Bike Fit is €140 and includes the two-week check-up. The advanced version, with Velometrik saddle pressure mapping, is €160, and two bikes in the same visit is €200. Triathlon and time trial bikes carry a supplement. One-off services such as cleat positioning (€25) or saddle testing (€50) can be booked separately.
How long does a bike fit take?
Between 1h30 and 2h for the 3D Bike Fit, 2h to 2h30 for the advanced version, and around 3h30 when we do two bikes in one visit. It is worth setting aside the morning or the afternoon: we do not like rushing fits.
Do I need to bring my own bike?
Yes. Bring the bike you actually ride, the shoes and cleats you normally use, and your shorts and jersey. If you use insoles, knee supports or any other kit, bring that too — we want to set the position up for real training conditions, not laboratory ones.
What is a VO2max test?
It is an incremental test, on the bike or running, wearing a mask connected to a gas analyser. We measure the oxygen you consume and the carbon dioxide you produce up to exhaustion, which gives us your maximal oxygen uptake, your efficiency and your ventilatory thresholds. It costs €100 and can be done at our facility or outdoors.
What is the difference between a VO2max test and a lactate test?
The VO2max test measures gas exchange and shows the ceiling of your aerobic engine. The lactate test (€80) takes small blood samples at each intensity step and plots your lactate accumulation curve, which is excellent for pinning down thresholds and training zones. Plenty of athletes do both: VO2max once or twice a season, lactate more often to track progress.
Do you work with amateur cyclists?
Yes, and they make up most of our clients. We coach Olympic and world-level athletes, but also weekend riders and complete beginners. The method does not change: we assess, set real zones, and build a plan that fits around your life.
Where are you and which areas do you cover?
We are in Conceição de Tavira on the eastern Algarve, a few minutes from the centre of Tavira. We regularly see riders from Olhão, Faro, Vila Real de Santo António, Loulé and across the region, as well as visiting riders who spend the winter training in the Algarve.
