An e-bike lets you ride longer and further, often for people getting back on a bike after years away, or who have knee, hip or back pain. That is exactly where a properly set position matters: the motor does not correct a saddle that is too low, it just lets you pedal for longer in a bad position.
What to bring: your e-bike, charged, and your usual shoes.
| Area | Common postural cause |
|---|---|
| Knee | saddle too low, very common on hire e-bikes or when getting back on a bike |
| Back and neck | handlebar too low or too far away when returning after a period of inactivity |
| Hands | too much weight on the front on a heavy bike |
| Saddle | discomfort or numbness: saddle too far back or tilted, width unsuited to your pelvis, handlebar too low tipping your weight forward |
I treat the pain with osteopathy if needed, then I correct the position so it does not come back. Osteopath for cyclists.

« I went to Gaspard for a bike fit and I was not disappointed! Very calm, composed, attentive, takes his time, excellent advice (a saddle model better suited to my body), ultra-professional equipment. Available afterwards by email or message for questions, very responsive. I went back to see him after the changes he had recommended: there is real follow-up. I highly recommend him, with my eyes closed! »
« Great work by Gaspard! A few hundred kilometres after he reviewed my bike setup and gave me advice on pedalling properly, no more knee or back pain. The way to go if you want to ride for hours without trouble. »
« I went to see Gaspard because I had been suffering from pain in my right knee for over 2 years, especially on the bike. After one osteopathy session and a bike fit, the pain has completely gone. Impressive result, the pleasure of riding back in a single session. Very professional and effective work. I highly recommend him! »

For leisure riding or commuting, yes: 1 hour, €90, and you leave with your bike set up. For sporty e-MTB riding or long rides, the full bike fit is preferable.
Yes, it is even recommended: the position has to respect the range of motion allowed by your surgeon. Bring your surgical report.
Often. A consultation releases the stiffness that gets in the way of your position, then the basic bike fit sets up the bike.
Call me on +33 6 13 66 09 55: in two minutes I will tell you. For a city, leisure or commuting e-bike, the basic bike fit is almost always enough.
In most cases, yes. Tell me the model when you book: if the bike cannot go on the trainer, I set it up on the floor, the result is the same.
