SMALL CHANGES, BIG DIFFERENCE: WHY YOUR POSITION MATTERS MORE THAN YOU THINK
Cycling has a beautiful way of reminding us that the smallest adjustments can unlock the biggest gains. A few millimetres here, a subtle angle there, and suddenly the ride feels smoother, faster, more natural.
At Forge 1860, we see this every day: riders who come in for a quick check‑in and leave wondering how such minor tweaks could make such a major difference.
That’s the quiet magic of bike fit.

THE POWER OF A FEW MILLIMETRES
Most riders assume discomfort, inefficiency, or fatigue are just part of the deal. But more often than not, the solution isn’t a new bike or a complete overhaul, it’s a handful of thoughtful adjustments. Saddle height, reach, cleat position, bar width… each plays a role in how your body interacts with the bike. When they’re dialled in, everything feels effortless. When they’re not, you feel it everywhere.
A well‑tuned position doesn’t just improve comfort. It boosts power transfer, reduces injury risk, and helps you ride longer with more confidence. It’s the difference between “getting through the miles” and genuinely enjoying them.
ONE‑TO‑ONE FITTING: STANDARD AT FORGE 1860
As part of our evolution into Forge 1860, we’ve made one‑to‑one fit sessions a standard part of the experience. Not because we’re changing who we are, but because we’re doubling down on what matters: helping every rider get more from their time on the bike.
These sessions aren’t rushed or generic. They’re personal, collaborative, and grounded in years of experience. Whether you’re refining your current setup or exploring a new bike, we take the time to understand your riding, your goals, and your body’s natural movement. The result is a position that feels like it was made for you (because it was).
THE RIGHT BIKE STARTS WITH THE RIGHT FIT
Choosing a bike is easier when you know what fits you. A proper position reveals what geometry, size, and components will truly support your riding. Instead of guessing, you’re guided by real data and real comfort. It’s a smarter, more confident way to invest in your next ride.
A NEW NAME, THE SAME CARE—JUST MORE OF IT
The Forge 1860 store may be a new chapter, but the principles behind it haven’t changed. If anything, they’ve sharpened. The same people, the same expertise, the same commitment to riders, now with even more focus on the details that elevate your experience.
Just like a bike fit, the name change is a small adjustment that makes everything work better.
READY FOR YOUR OWN SMALL CHANGE?
A quick check‑in on your position could transform the way you ride. Whether you’re chasing comfort, speed, or simply more joy on the bike, we’re here to help you find it, one thoughtful adjustment at a time.
