Man, I found another gem in the cycling world. I got my first flat today and thought I was…read moreprepared, but my valve stem was too short for my carbon wheels. I was right by the Fair Oaks Bridge on the American River Trail, half a mile away from this shop I had seen before but never stopped at. I had to decide if I was going to walk or call for a ride. I ended up walking, took my cycling shoes off and went in socks haha, not too bad actually. Fortunately, Adaman was there and had exactly what I needed. I caught him in the middle of something, but he still took the time to help and even replaced the tube for me, which I really appreciated. He also pointed me in the right direction for a proper pump and spare tube so I don't run into this again. I'll definitely be back, maybe even to look into a bike upgrade down the road. And once they get coffee and beer going, I'll for sure be stopping in more often. Thanks again for getting me back on the road.

My husband had a recent fitting at AlthletiCamps and said it was totally worth it. Totally worth…read moreit! Being new to cycling and wanting to get the most out of his new road bike my husband decided to get professionally fitted by Bruce at Athleticamps on the recommendation of his local bike shop. During the initial phone conversation, Bruce was warm and friendly. He took some time to get to know my husband, his bike, and his overall goals, then scheduled his appointment. Bruce did a great job of explaining how the fit process works and what to expect during the appointment. He also directed him to his website, which clearly states his description of services. The appointment itself went great! Bruce made him feel comfortable right away. After some friendly small talk, Bruce got to work setting up my husband's bike on the indoor trainer while he changed in the private bathroom. Then Bruce did an evaluation of his overall body structure, looking at things like how he stands, how he walks, how he balances, etc. My husband mentioned that he is fairly new to biking seriously and that he sometimes experiences numb feet while riding. Bruce explained how this is common due to the build of cycling shoes and offered a solution of custom-made insole inserts. he loved this idea and chose to opt in to include this in the fitting. This was an add-on service and cost an additional $95 (well worth it if you ask him.) My husband got on the bike and was fitted with electrodes on both sides of his body. He reported that seeing the data on the screen was so cool! Bruce did a great job of walking him through what he was looking at and what everything meant. Bruce watched my husband pedal from all angles including showing a video of him pedaling. Bruce checked in continually asking questions about comfort and feel. In no time, Bruce made several adjustments to my husband's bike and cleats that made an enormous impact! How my husband felt on the bike leaving the fitting was completely different than he felt at the beginning. The adjustments made him feel like he had much better control over the bike and better command of the bike. He was far more comfortable with better posture and reported that he even looked different on the bike. The service costs $295 (plus tax) plus the additional $95 for the custom-made inserts (again, worth it.) All in all, this was a 5-star experience! Bruce is a terrific individual with infectious positivity. Yes, it's well worth a few hundred dollars.

The change of the pedals/cleats resulted in substantial knee pain. I tried to make adjustments but time was running out so I scheduled a bike fitting with Bruce. I have been biking for 30 years and have never had a bike fitting... I never really knew I needed one. Needless to say, Bruce went through his process and adjusted my cleats, adjusted my stem height and validated that my bike fit me correctly. That was in May of last year... I didn't have any pain during those 4 days and over 1000 miles later my knees are still good. So... THANKS Bruce!!
