Welcome to Bloomington Cycle & Fitness


   Bloomington Cycle & Fitness is a family owned and operated bicycle shop, with friendly and knowledgeable staff who LOVE to ride bikes! We have a wide variety of mountain, road, comfort and bmx bicycles in stock and a great location, right on the Constitution Trail, to test ride. Not to mention, every bike we sell comes with free brake and shifting adjustment as long as you own your bike! We also stock a huge selection of bicycle parts and accessories, and quality repair service to make your ride all it can be. Whether you are looking for a first bike or you ride like a pro, we would love to help you.

   We also carry and service Vision Fitness Equipment. Check out their reputation for quality products or come in and try it out. We have stationary bicycles, treadmills and ellipticals set up on the floor so you can get a feel for them. We personally deliver all fitness equipment, and handle the warranty work ourselves.

   All this and Gift Cards, Lay-A-Way and Financing plans! Why go anywhere else?

Bloomington Cycle & Fitness is now a
Specialized BG FIT specialist!

BG FIT

WHAT IS BG FIT?

Developed after years of working with Dr. Andy Pruitt Ed.D., PA of the Boulder Center for Sports Medicine and found only at your local Specialized dealer, BG FIT (Body Geometry Fit Integration Technology) is a comprehensive fit philosophy created to help cyclists ride faster, longer and in greater comfort, while reducing the chance for injury.

BG FIT “technicians” are trained by the medical consultants and expert staff at Specialized to analyze each rider’s unique attributes, pedal stroke and body position. Using the data gained during the assessment, they optimize the bike and equipment to match the rider’s biomechanical profile.

Unlike any of the nameless fit systems available today, BG FIT is the only one to leverage trained fit technicians, breakthrough fit tools like a detailed and dynamic fit assessment process, plus ergonomically enhanced bikes and equipment.

Without this specific combination of ingredients, you simply aren’t getting a BG FIT.

WHO USES BG FIT?

Specialized bicycles and equipment have been used at the highest level of competition for many years. Now, so has BG FIT. We are proud to assess athletes from Quick Step and Saxo Bank including Fabian Cancellara, Andy and Frank Schleck, Jens Voigt and Team Director Bjarne Riis. Also relying on BG FIT are athletes from MTB and Tri disciplines, including Christoph Sauser, Rebecca Rush, Desirée Flicker and Conrad Stoltz; each of these world-class athletes have trusted their bikes and bodies to Specialized and BG FIT.

Dr. Andy Pruitt and several of our expert fitters set the Saxo Team up on their bikes just before entering the 2009 race season, and Team Director (and cycling legend) Bjarne Riis even went so far as to say, “I feel my body in a whole new way” after testing his newly fitted ride.

Point being: BG FIT provides quantifiable benefits that even the most discerning riders recognize.

Sick of the rat race? Come into the shop to check out the Rat Ride!

(same rat, different ride)

Rat Ride - SURLY

   
Here's the sitch:
The 1x1 Rat Ride, later renamed the Surly 1x1, was Surly's very first frame. Holy crap. When was that? A lot has probably happened since then. They thought about it for a while with their tongues sticking out, sat down, chewed on their pencil stubs, did the math, and discovered that in the universal language of mathematics there is a simple equation to explain it:

1x1=11.

Hard to believe but Surly turns eleven years old this year.

Hardened blackhearts though they are, they nonetheless felt that a little nod to their staying power and your support over the years was in order. They think many of us will take one look and agree it is fully rad. We know we do. Consider, for example, 24 x 3" slicks on Large Marge rims. If that don't rev your deal you might need to check your pulse!

Please note that the photo is of a prototype and shows silver spokes and white hotpatches on the tires. The production version has red hotpatches and black spokes.

It's in stock now. Stop in at up your friendly neighborhood bicycle shop, Bloomington Cycle & Fitness, to check it out. Remember: there are not a ton of them available, and once they're gone they're gone.
