Bike fitting is a topic that some people ignore, even though it is one of the most crucial components of a comfortable and long-lasting relationship with your bike.
Whether this is your framesets, saddle positioning, wheelset and many more - taking this aspect of your new bicycle needs to become more prominent in your buying process.

That is why in today’s blog, we will be walking you through the benefits of riding a custom bicycle - should you be in the market for a new bike (or looking for a change). Carry on reading to learn more!
What is a Bespoke Bike?
At Reilly our first stop is finding out how and why you ride. We take that information and work out which model will suit you and then look at bike sizing. Finally we talk finishes - with a wealth of options you really can make your frameset unique.
Benefits of Riding a Custom Bicycle
Allows creativity for your specific riding style
Keeps your posture in check
Becomes low maintenance
Presents pain-free exercise
Suitable for all bike types
A cheaper option than buying a car
You will have the ability to customise it
These listed advantages are just a few of the many opposing functions of a custom bike. Although this experience may cost more than investing in a traditional bike using your own initiative - investing just that little bit more will definitely prevent you from having to repair your bike as often.
No more will you have to struggle to position your saddle until you feel slightly ‘satisfied’, or worry about your knees hitting the handlebars consistently, to name a few. Instead, you will have an aero-optimised tire/frame design that will last a lifetime (with the correct frameset materials) and will feel comfortable forever.
As you know our frame geometry is designed to work with everybody, whether you’re five foot or six foot four.
