Hi All,

Where can I get a Trek bike fitting similar to the Specialized one? I think I want to get a Trek bike (already have one and I like it). Do they not have one ... ?

    I work at a Trek dealer, Trek don't do a fit like specialised do, just buy a trek and go to a specialist fitter? Or even go to the specialised BG fit.

    The Trek store in Milton Keynes does a Trek fitting with all sorts of different options. I do not know how comprehensive it is compared to Specialised however.

    Having said that, I believe a bike fit should not be based on a specific bike. If I was buying off the shelf, I would have the fit then look for the bike frame that nearest fits and attach the bits to make it nearest match the measurements.

    I had a fitting at an Orbea dealer, looked at the Specialised and Trek bikes and went for a Madone 5.9 which was as close asci could get without going bespoke.
