Slowtwitch Bike Lounge in Kona
Slowtwitch is conducting, for lack of a better term, a bike census at the Hawaiian Ironman. We're less interested in what you're riding than in how you're riding, and that's what we aim to find out. We're partnering up with Retül and the Sheraton Keauhou Bay Resort and Spa for the Slowtwitch Bike Lounge, powered by Retul.
The plan: You relax, maybe talk shop with Slowtwitchers Herbert Krabel, Timothy Carlson and Lars Finanger, while the folks from Retül 3D Bike Fit Technology spend a couple of minutes with your bike and capture your position coordinates using Retül's Zin wand (pictured at work).
Here's a thought for you pro athletes out there: Many or most bike companies ask me, starting right about now, who's available? Who will sell us bikes? And I tell these companies the same thing: The most valuable pros put flesh on the bones of the bikes they ride (note Chrissie doing just that here). Bring your bike to the Slowtwitch Bike Lounge and let Retül put some flesh on it.
For you AGers: Maybe Retul’s head fitter, Todd Carver, might have some time to look over your position. Otherwise, grab a free cup of coffee compliments of Slowman and Slowtwitch.com.
And while you're lounging, try out our recovery couch complete with NormaTec MVP Recovery Boots (aka Space Legs…Garmin Cycling Team's name for them).
The Slowtwitch Bike Lounge, powered by Retul will be open Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of race week (10 AM to 4 PM) and be featured in the scenic lobby of the Sheraton Keauhou Bay Resort and Spa in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii.
There is no charge, but setting up an appointment will help make sure you're not there any longer than you want to be. To make an appointment contact Lars Finanger at 303-828-8034 or mail to lars@slowtwitch.com.
If you have interest in getting a full and proper bike fit by FIST certified fitter and Retul co-founder, Todd Carver, then please contact info@retul.com or 720-406-1171 ext 4 to make an appointment.
