Road bikes melbourne    There are a lot of road bike shops out there, and we are the first to aknowledge that we are less know for road bikes, so why would you come to My Mountain for yours?

Like all our bikes, we put a lot of care, love and attention into providing you with the best possible experience while delivering well built, professionally fitted road bike.  For us this is a three stage process:   The consult Our first priority is to take the time and care needed to ensure we provide the best solution for your cycling needs. We start with a few questions. Where do you ride, how long, how fast, how experienced.  We will also be interested to know about your current ride. What do you like about it, what don’t you like about it, why are you upgrading etc? From there we will hopefully have two or three good solutions from our great range of bikes.  With road bikes coming in 2cm size increments getting the correct frame size is critical. And it's not as easy as just looking at your height and pulling a number out of a hat. It's not that easy because most people will be OK on a couple of sizes, but we don't want a bike that's OK, we want it to be perfect.  So to make sure we get you on the perfect frame size we go through a full measure up taking around 10 minutes that will give us a clear picture of what your ideal frame size looks like.    The build With the industry standard time taken to build a bike being less than 60 minutes why do we take up to four hours for a simple road bike? Well simply, because we do it right. In fact we spend 30 minutes on the wheels alone, by the time we true, tension and de-stress them, then torque up the cassette. And ask any experienced road rider if this is important and you will get a clear message....A resounding yes!  While our attention to detail can be easily spotted in some areas such as cable routing and brake setup,  other areas are more subtle like aligning the derailleur hanger with the wheel and correct positioning of the front derailleur. But one thing that is certain is that you will feel the difference that all these Meticulous adjustments make on the road. Many small improvements have a big impact on the bikes overall performance which is the aim of the game.   The bike fit So with your bike built with much love, care and attention there is but one thing left to do. The road bike bike fitting. Starting at your feet and finishing at your fingertips the bike fitting takes into account your riding style, flexibility and proportions. With every aspect of the bike fine-tuned to your body you will not only find yourself feeling more in control and confident, but you will be more efficient and less prone to injuries and even crashing.  This process can take up to around 90 minutes and is something we are regularly paid to do as a service, however this is part of our standard sales process so is provided at no cost.
