Retul'ing with Sky Pro Cycling
Boulder, Colorado - Crucial Innovation Inc, makers of Retul 3D Bike Fit technology, proudly announce a multi-year partnership with the Sky Pro Cycling Team and The British Cycling Federation. Team Sky has already incorporated Retul into their daily practices; continually monitoring and testing their riders to ensure bike fit positions are completely optimized for maximum performance. For professional teams, Retul's bike fit system is ideal equipment to utilize due to its rider assessment repeatability, 3D accuracy under load, and portability.
Retul
co-founder, Todd Carver, attended Team Sky's first training camp in Valencia
Spain last month to
begin the 3D bike fit evolution with Team Sky's riders and is looking forward
to working with legendary British Cycling Federation's coaches and staff. "The
riders and coaches were very receptive to our fit process and the data we
collected on both their road and TT bikes will be very useful for the team this
season, " stated Carver.
Bike Fitting has
been a widely popular and fundamental topic in the cycling industry for the
past decade. While fitting
methodologies may differ between institutions, most experts agree that
analyzing the cyclist while riding (or dynamic fitting) is the best practice
for quality assessment. Since
launching in November 2007, Retul has demonstrated the strongest capacity for
taking the art of bike fitting to a more precise and innovative level. "We
have many more software developments in the pipeline for Retul - that's the
exciting part" said Cliff Simms, Founder of Retul. "We
were honored that Team Sky chose our technology. The benefits and efficiencies of Retul have become
distinctly obvious as Retul systems were also used at the Team Radio Shack,
Columbia-HTC, and Garmin Transitions camps this year."
