Our team can dial in your contact points — saddle height, reach, and cleat alignment if you're running clipless pedals — and set tyre pressure appropriate for the mix of pavement and gravel you're riding, whether that's the KVR or the Rail Trail. We can also help fit racks, fenders, or frame bags using the integrated mounts if you're setting this bike up for bikepacking or commuting. Drop into Fresh Air Pandosy (555 Groves Ave) or Fresh Air Dilworth (1656 Dilworth Drive), or book an appointment online.
