Went there for my first ever professional bike fit and Steve Thordarson is one incredibly smart guy. He brought up issues during the bike fit session that I'd never even thought of.

As part of this fit, I needed a new bar and stem and, being a licensed and incredibly experienced mechanic, watching him handle this bar and stem swap bears that out. Exquisitely done.

Additionally, I am in the market for a coach and Steve T. is an Elite level (1) USCF coach. I asked a few power-related training questions when I was there for the bar/stem swap and Steve again showed extensive experience in pretty much anything physiologically-related.
