Husam and Andy recently attended an intensive two day training seminar on triathlon bike fitting at Slowtwitch in beautiful Valyermo, CA.

They received hands-on training in the latest in tri-bike fitting and technology from Dan Empfield founder of Slowtwitch as well as Qunitana Roo. Dan's also been competing in triathlons since the first Iron-Man Hawaii back in 1981. His years of experience in both the industry and as a competitor have given him an insight into how a tri bike should fit that few other people have.

A key component of the Slowtwitch fitting is the measurement of angles (i.e. Leg angle, hip angle, etc) to maintain a consistent body position as the angles of the bike are changed. In this picture Dan is preparing to measure Andy's knee angle.

By keeping the angles the same the fitter and the rider are able to achieve the most aggressive and, more importantly, most powerful position without sacrificing comfort.
