Serving Hawthorn cyclists
Bike Fitting for Hawthorn Cyclists
Hawthorn cyclists have some brilliant options nearby. The Yarra trails, Kew Boulevard, the Outer Circle Trail. Getting properly fitted means more of those rides feel the way they should. We are in Richmond, just over the bridge and only 12 minutes away. Physio led bike fits from $275, claimable on private health.

What we offer
Two ways to get properly fitted
Both sessions are delivered by AHPRA registered physiotherapists and claimable on most private health policies. Hawthorn cyclists have Kew Boulevard, the Yarra Trail and the Outer Circle on their doorstep. If you are riding those routes regularly, a proper fit makes every one of them better. Most Hawthorn cyclists can get here and back in half a day, and the difference on the bike is noticeable from ride one.
A thorough physio led look at how you sit on your bike. Saddle height, cleat position, handlebar reach and everything in between. Good for road cyclists, commuters and gravel riders who want to sort their position without a full physio workup.
Starts with a proper physiotherapy assessment before you get on the bike. Strength, flexibility, posture, movement. We figure out what is going on in your body and let that inform the fit. Includes a written report and exercise program sent to you afterwards.
Thinking about buying a new bike and not sure on sizing? We will assess what you are currently riding and give you clear, practical advice on what to look for before you spend a lot of money.
Precise measurement at every stage
Our Richmond warehouse studio
Every adjustment gets documented
A real studio, not a bike shop corner
Twelve minutes from Hawthorn via Bridge Road, the Ciclo studio is a proper fitting space in a Richmond warehouse — built for bike fitting specifically, with a turbo trainer, video analysis, measurement tools, and a treatment room for Tailored Fit clients needing the full physiotherapy workup.
Evolutio Sports Physio are in the same building. If the fit surfaces something — an old injury, a strength asymmetry, a flexibility issue — the referral to Evolutio is immediate. Same building, no fuss.
Who you will meet
Your practitioner
Shirouz ElangoYou are seeing a registered physiotherapist
Every fit at Ciclo is done by an AHPRA registered physiotherapist. Not a bike tech, not a sports scientist. A physiotherapist. That matters because it changes how we think about what we are doing.
We understand injury patterns and how the body compensates. When we look at how you sit on your bike, we are connecting what we see to what is going on physically, not just moving parts until the angles look right on paper.
A lot of our Hawthorn clients are club cyclists or regular weekend riders who have been managing niggles for a while. The fit often explains where those are coming from and what to do about them.
Why Ciclo
Why Hawthorn cyclists rate us
A physiotherapist runs the session
AHPRA registered, cycling-trained, and focused on why your body does what it does on the bike. The fit is built around the assessment findings.
Clinical assessment, not convention
We use structured physiotherapy assessment and research to guide every adjustment. The positions we recommend have a clinical rationale, not just a visual one.
Zero commercial interests
We are not a bike shop. We do not earn commission on anything we recommend. You get the honest clinical opinion, full stop.
Everything documented
Written summary within 24 hours. A call at 7 to 10 days to check how the position is feeling. Tailored Fit clients also receive a detailed PDF report.
