Fittings at Free Flite Bicycles, Sandy Springs

“If you’re serious about biking – Get the bike fit here! I’ve had other bike fits, but none like this! This is not a 10-minute fit. Eddie will take careful measurements of you, check these against your bike, explain the physiology of riding, explain how your particular physiology works on your bike, makes adjustments, hooks up a sensor for real time feedback on position, etc. This was super helpful for me to deal with some issues.”

— Kurt D.

“Before I got my personalized fitting, I was experiencing neck, shoulder and back pain all of which have been resolved thanks to Eddie’s extreme knowledge of anatomy, physiology, and the proper way one ‘feel’ while riding a bike. He made several adjustments to my bike as well as gave me techniques to use while I cycle. We struggled with finding a saddle that would not cause me pain and he successfully found me one! Now, I can ride farther and more efficiently than I ever did before!”

— Stephanie B.

“I was hesitant about spending a good amount of money on a bike fitting but was absolutely happy I did. Eddie spent a great deal of time getting my road bike setup properly and teaching about technique. I found out I had been riding inefficiently for years causing aches and pains. 100% would spend the money again for the fitting.”

— Kiel v. L.

“I didn’t know how detailed this was actually going to be. I’m talking physics and Anatomy class wrapped in one. … I just completed my first ride and the difference in comfort was obvious. My butt wasn’t hurting.”

— Serge V.

“Top-tier bicycle fits with Eddie O’Dea. I’m a petite athlete and the things I thought weren’t possible on my bike like screaming fast accelerations are now well within my wheelhouse. Proper bike fit is crucial. Get an appointment now and thank me later.”

— Alison F.

“He spent nearly three hours with me to adjust my bike perfectly. … He took every kind of measurement – on both me and my bike. Made a lot of adjustments – and then talked to me about techniques … I listened to what he had to say – and within minutes, my bike and my pedaling completely changed. … Next day – first ride on my bike – I broke all my previous PR’s on a hilly route I take.”

— Trent B.

“I went to Free Flite for a bike fit with Eddie O’Dea. He was great. Very knowledgeable. He sorted out a couple of problems I was having with my fit and gave me some good advice. The staff was very relaxed and welcoming. All in all a great experience. I highly recommend.”
