Bicycle Mechanical Services
Whether we are tuning your bike, building a new set of wheels or building your new bike, we sweat the details. Fit Werx technicians take a “zero defects” attitude in their work in order to provide you the most consistently adjusted and smoothest running bicycle possible.
Fit Werx offers fully stocked bike shops run by career-based master service technicians ready to tune, repair and solve most any mechanical issue on your bike and help your bike work to its potential. A sampling of some of the more common services we provide is as follows:
- Standard Tune-Up
- Ultrasonic Drivetrain Cleaning – A clean bike is often a better functioning and longer lasting bike and nothing removes grime from components as safely or as well as an ultrasonic cleaning.
- Comprehensive Bike Overhaul
- Custom Wheel Building – Our technicians love to build wheels to match a rider’s needs as well as possible. From cross pattern to spoke, hub and rim selection, let us build you wheels as well suited to your use and bike as possible.
- Problem Solving & Diagnostics – From the challenging nuances of a Campagnolo drivetrain to figuring out where that annoying creak is coming from, our technicians are some of the best trained and experienced.
- Power Meter Installation and Set-Up – We have sold power meters since 2002 and have sold and serviced more than any other shop in New England to date.
- Electronic Shifting – From Shimano Di2 to Campagnolo EPS, Fit Werx was one of the very first shops to sell and service these systems. We offer full sales, installation, programming and diagnostics.
- Setting Bikes to Fit Coordinates – We have fit thousands of riders and have set-up thousands of bikes to match their riders.
