Bruce has fitted 4 bikes for me, from road bike to tri bikes to prestige comfort. In addition to my bike fits over the last 3 years Bruce has also helped me with saddles, shoes and accessories to accommodate my training needs. Doing this took research on his own personal time to get the right combination. Now that is the perfect bike fitter that cares to go above and beyond! If you want the best Bruce H. Athleticcamps🚲👍

I recently completed a full bike fit with pedal dynamics at Athleticamps and it was a phenomenal experience from start to finish. Bruce was awesome, courteous, professional and full of knowledge about bike fitting. We fit my current bike which feels like an amazing whole new ride and got measurements for an upcoming new bike build. The fit process and information provided was world class and I would highly recommend it to anyone who rides a bike. If there was an option for more that 5 stars I would happily increase my rating. I will also be recommending Bruce and Athleticamps to everyone I can. My bike has never been more comfortable, efficient or felt faster than after the fit. Thank you again for the bike fit!In addition to the bike fit Bruce has also been providing customized coaching for me over the last year. Bruce is a wealth of knowledge and a great coach all around. Under his guidance/coaching my overall fitness has improved immeasurably as has my enjoyment of consistent training, competing in Triathlon and cycling events alike. I would and do recommend Athleticamps coaching services to everyone I come across. Whether for continual training or event specific blocks Bruce and Athleticamps will always be my go to coaching destination!!

I not only recommend Bruce Hendler as a Bike Fitter but also as comprehensive Cycling Coach with all the tools. Ive been wanting to do Bike Fit for years and my wife was kind enough to gift me this Bike Fit for my Birthday this year. I always felt like I was missing the right setup to maximize my power. Bruce nailed it with cleat position, seat hight and a much better seat to replace my 18 year old seat that came with the bike. Yes I was riding an 18 years old seat! Definitely time for a new one and he had all different sizes and shapes to properly fit what was best for me. Bruce and talked a lot during the fit and hes done 1000s which was impressive since hes got a quick eye to support the 3D capture data he uses for all the body angles during the fit. Bruce also offers comprehensive fitness testing for VO2, lactate, torque analysis in additional to coaching which only makes his services more valuable. After the fit I did a several test rides on a few familiar Strava segments to see how id feel. I had been off the bike for more then 4 weeks and my training was completely off but I still hit PRs with ease feeling like I had an extra gear with my new fit. I was completely amazed and excited to get back to my training. A big thanks to Bruce and hope you find his services soon so he can help you as he did me. When I get new shoes and or a new bike I will defiantly be back to see Bruce!Sincerely,Thomas

Completed a bike fitting for my new road bike w/ Bruce at Athleticamps - and highly recommend. 2.5 hours gives you a sense of how comprehensive this - and Bruce evaluated and adjusted from head to toe, including cleat position, seat, handlebars, etc - as well as coaching on proper bike posture. What I particularly appreciated was his explanations throughout it all. Really comfortable environment and process - highly recommend you see Bruce & Athleticamps.

Excellent experience! I traveled from 3 hours away to be fitted here and would now gladly have gone twice as far.The process is very thorough and data driven, but at the end of the day still tailored to how you (the athlete) feel and Bruces experience. I feel like I now have the best bike for ME, and not just what the numbers say.I immediately went on a ride the next day and couldnt believe the change. Not only was I more comfortable on the bike, but felt like I had more control and confidence on tricky terrain (gravel bike fit).Cant recommend enough.

I have worked with Bruce literally for decades, first at a training camp, later as one of his coached athletes, then several bike fits and performance tests. Bruce is both knowledgeable and passionate about what he does. He continues to expand his information and experience base even after 20 years as a coach/bike fitter, which I find remarkable. Bruce is affable, easy to talk to, and quite engaging. Plus, he truly gets results. I cannot recommend him highly enough!

Bruce got me dialed in on my new road bike. After a lengthy layoff I got a new bike. I made an appointment with Bruce for a fitting. He made a few adjustments which translated into a more comfortable riding position. Im very satisfied and would recommend his service to anyone. Thanks Bruce.

An overall great experience! Bruce is professional, passionate, and good at what he does. I had been riding my introductory bike for a few years before I decide to get a new, and much better, bike. Had been riding the new bike for three months before I decided to get a fitting and that has made all the difference. I am much more comfortable and my power on the bike has increased immensely. I wish I would have visited Bruce with my first bike. Its never too early or too late to get a bike fitting is one thing Ive learned. And if you have decided to get a fitting, go see Bruce.

Ive been fit many times throughout the years and Bruce @Athleticamps gave me the best fit Ive ever had. His knowledge and experience allowed him to spot several deficiencies which dramatically changed my experience on the bike. After the fit, Bruce wants feedback and is accessible to discuss them all. Dont forget to purchase the custom insoles, they are a game changer, not a gimmick. Thank you Bruce, Ill be back for more.

Upon the recommendation of my riding teammate, I visited Bruce Hendler of Athleticamps last Thursday. My main concern was knee and trapezius pain with long rides. Bruce took a 3D motion capture with sensors attached to my forefoot, heel, ankle, knee, hip, shoulder, elbow, and wrist. This provided the data needed to see where my positioning on the bike could be improved. Bruce moved my saddle back and up, adjusted my cleats, replaced the stem, and adjusted the grip angle (now I can actually reach my brakes when Im in my drops). He also STRONGLY recommended I change out my cranks to a smaller size and recommended Matt at AE Service Course to do that work. After my 2.5 hours with Bruce, I felt confident I would feel significant improvement on my bike. I did a 25-mile easy ride on Friday and it felt good, but wanted to wait until todays 60-mile ride to be sure. I am thrilled! No knee pain and traps and neck are relaxed...so happy about that. Looking forward to my new cranks in a week or two. I highlyrecommend Bruce Hendler at Athleticamps in Folsom; definitely money well-spent!
