TOGA, New York City's oldest and largest bike store, has been serving cyclists from around the world for more than 30 years. Since its humble beginnings in the East Village, Toga has enjoyed a reputation for expertise and knowledge that is far beyond a typical bike shop. For years, cyclists have passed over other bike shops in order to buy their bikes and have them built the TOGA way. Now, TOGA proudly announces it's new location, in Nyack!




Why is bicycle fitting so important?


Many cyclists believe that pain is part of bicycling. Whether it's between their shoulder blades, saddle numbness, back pain, or aching knees. This occurs when your bike does not fit you properly.

toga_3.jpgEliminating discomfort is an integral part of the fitting process. The goal is to make the riding experience more rewarding by examining every aspect of your cycling comfort and efficiency.

If your body is not in biomechanical alignment with the mechanics of the bike, then energy is wasted due to inefficient power transfer. Numerous cyclists from beginner to elite are comfortable but unaware that their position is bio-mechanically inefficent. It is also common to waste energy due to lack of core stability and strength, poor flexability, incorrect saddle height and position, poor pedaling technique and poor cleat placement. These are just a few of the issues that are examined and taken into account during the fitting process.


A body fit is appropriate when you want to:

-Ensure your bike is the correct size
-Ensue your position on the existing bike is correct
-Eliminate bike discomfort
-Compensate for existing injuries
-Increase overall biomechanical efficiency

toga_1.jpgThis type of fitting is for the individual who already owns a bike and wishes to have it set up for optimal alignment. Saddle height, angle, fore/aft position, handlebar width/drop, stem length/rise, cleat fore/aft and alignment. These adjustments are made to match the riders style and needs. The riders flexability, range of motion and level of fitness are also taken into consideration. All of these factors affect adjustments on the bike.




A Size Cycle fitting is appropriate when you want to:

-Purchase the appropriately sized stock bike
-Define your custom bike geometry to create your perfect fitting bike
-Define the optimal bike position without any positional restictions
-Eliminate any discomfort
-Compensate for existing injuries
-Increase overall biomechanical efficiency

A Serotta Size Cycle is used because it is completely adjustable and accurately measures every critical frame element including seat tube angle, top tube length, seat height, and stem length/angle. Whether you are planning on buying a custom bike or frame, The Serotta Size Cycle is the tool we use to insure that the bike you purchase is exact to your body needs.

Also, Toga Café is now open at our Nyack location and is now serving delicious coffee, espresso, and tea!
