James Enve Melee in Aegean Blue

This bike was rightly a long time in gestation. It is a bike with a purpose. The goal is to significantly lift the average speed of its owner by a significant margin when competing in mountain events. It had to be lighter and more aero than the outgoing Trek Domane but still work well from a bike-fit and comfort perspective. After much soul-searching and test-riding (Trek Madone Gen8, Specialized S-Works Tarmac, Seven Axiom XX) James selected the Enve Melee as his summer weapon of choice.

What our clients say

  • "A highly personalized and very friendly service, giving good advice and adjustments that are helpful whatever level of cyclist you are."

    MJ

    Cyclist

  • "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

  • "Julian was very knowledgeable and explained the fitting process very well. He came highly recommended and i completely agree. Very happy with the service. Instantly felt better on the bike. The pain i had in my knee went away right away. "

    Recreational cyclist

  • "Cyclefit provide a great personalised service that focuses on giving you exactly what you need. They are extremely knowledgable and friendly and no request/requirement is too difficult for them."

  • "I'm new to cycling so needed some support on finding a bike that would be right for me. Julian couldn't have been kinder or more supportive, he took time to find out what I wanted from my cycling and then looked closely at my physical structure to ensure that the bike is a comfortable fit for me. It really is a 5 star service and far exceeded my expectations."
