WHAT IS BG FIT?
Developed after years of working with Dr. Andy Pruitt Ed.D., PA of the Boulder Center for Sports Medicine and found only at your local Specialized dealer, BG FIT (Body Geometry Fit Integration Technology) is a comprehensive fit philosophy created to help cyclists ride faster, longer and in greater comfort, while reducing the chance for injury. BG FIT “technicians” are trained by the medical consultants and expert staff at Specialized to analyze each rider’s unique attributes, pedal stroke and body position. Using the data gained during the assessment, they optimize the bike and equipment to match the rider’s biomechanical profile.
PRE-FIT INTERVIEW
Every fit—whether it's for a novice or experienced cyclist— starts with a brief interview between trained technician and rider that addresses the individual's injury history, needs and goals.
16-STEP FLEXIBILITY ASSESSMENT
This evaluation gains an accurate picture of the individual's flexibility and other physicalattributes, including assessment of foot structure, knee position, spinal curve, shoulder extension, hip flexion and leg length, among others.
SIDE VIEW
Assessed using the side view of the rider, the goal is to deliver a correct neutral position that's both powerful and comfortable through adjustments to seat height, handlebar height, stem length and cleat position.
FOLLOW UP
After a week or so, the technician calls to discuss the effectiveness of the adjustments and to answer any other questions or concerns the rider may have.
FRONT VIEW
Analysis from frontal view to optimize hip, knee and foot alignment for greater performance and balanced power delivery. Includes analysis of pedal and shoe placement and squareness on the saddle.
