"Project One Custom means that: frame-size, frame-finish, crank-length, stem-length, bar-width etc, are perfected choices rather than costly mistakes."

Superbike Peak Carbon

Within the category of top-flight race-bikes, there is a virtual arms-race between the bike manufacturers with the deepest R&D pockets. All of them trying to revise, re-think and re-engineer, what is possible if they stretch the latest carbon weave to its performance limits. We can't own and drive a Formula One car but we can ride a full factory-innovated Tour de France bike. And right now as the latest technology out of the super-lab, Trek's Gen8 Madone is the unchallenged apotheosis.

David read our Gen8 Madone launch piece, and as a Trek fan, who still has hard-charging riding goals, wanted the F1 riding experience. David's Project One Madone is our first Gen8 to be delivered. Our goal was to deliver a race-bike that was 'substantially' under the 6.8kg UCI limit!

What our clients say

  • "Hey Julian and Phil, I hope you are both well. I just completed a 21 hour week on my new 165mm cranks and I am in love. They feel so so great! Thank you for all your help. I’ve never felt so comfortable on my bike before. All the best, Hannah"

    Hannah Barnes

    National Champion / Professional Bike Rider

  • "A great service, full of personal touches as well as the "harder" scientific analysis of my position on the bike, which was also excellent. I feel more planted on the bike now, and came away with some really useful feedback from the session."

    Ed H

    London Dynamo Rider

  • "The personal service from both Phil and Julian is second to none. They have such a wealth of experience in fitting that they can almost tell at a glance if something is just a little off. It felt as though it didn't matter how long it took to get the best position possible - even for an amateur cyclist like myself. Can't recommend them enough."

    Susan

    Cyclist

  • "I have a lot of trust in you guys and I know how you work so I think we could do something good. Orthotics feeling good."

    Tom Pidcock

    World and Olympic champion, Ineos Grenadiers.

  • "Very very personalised service. You arrive, they expect you, greet you by first name, have checked your file from past visits and set out very clearly what the process will be, what issues they're looking to address and how and they are happy to take the time to walk you through everything in layman's terms. Almost any professional service entity could learn a lot from how Cyclefit works. "
