2.5 hours · One bike.
The standard fit for most cyclists: road, gravel or MTB. Includes full biomechanical assessment, on-bike analysis and written summary.
Andy runs a bike fitting residency at Biking Luca, on the Costa Blanca, and is the only native English-speaking fitter working on this stretch of coast. He's there two days a month, with everything he uses at the Valencia studio.
Thursday 10 &
Friday 11
Three fits per day. Six appointments in the block.
The residency runs two days a month to begin with, moving to two days a fortnight as it fills. Each day holds three fits, so blocks go quickly. Book early.
If the dates you want have gone, email Andy and he'll either hold you a slot in the next block or find you a date at the Valencia studio.
There's a large, well-established community of English-speaking riders along the coast between Denia and Benidorm, and Calpe sits about midway through it. Getting a proper fit has meant a long drive north, working through a language barrier, or both.
Andy is the only native English-speaking bike fitter working on this stretch of coast. That matters more than it first sounds. Most of a fit is a conversation: you describe what you feel, and Andy works out what's causing it. English is the common language of the cycling community here, and for plenty of riders it's their second one, so it helps that it's the fitter's first. He can ask the same question three different ways until the answer is precise. A fitter working in his own second language, or a translation app, can't.
The riding here doesn't help a marginal position either. Long climbs inland, descents that keep you on the drops for twenty minutes, and enough winter mileage that a position that's merely tolerable on an eight-minute climb becomes the thing you think about every ride.
Exactly what happens at the Valencia studio. The session opens with 20 to 30 minutes of conversation about your riding history, what hurts (if anything), your goals, and what previous fits did and didn't solve.
A full biomechanical assessment, looking at flexibility, posture, alignment, leg length, foot structure, and how your body actually moves. This usually tells us more about what's happening on the bike than anything we measure once you're riding.
Motion capture, pressure mapping and pedalling analysis. We make a change, watch how your body responds, and continue to adjust until the position works for the body you walked in with.
We go through what changed, why, what to watch for over the next few weeks, and when it makes sense to come back. You leave with a digital record through Andy's software, AIDOS, that you can refer back to once you're home.
All of it. Motion capture, pressure mapping, the assessment tools and the measurement kit come down from Valencia for each block.
One exception: custom insoles. Moulding and finishing a pair properly takes longer than a residency day allows, so that work stays at the studio. If your fit points towards custom insoles, Andy will say so and you can arrange it separately.

2.5 hours · One bike.
The standard fit for most cyclists: road, gravel or MTB. Includes full biomechanical assessment, on-bike analysis and written summary.
3.5 hours · Two bikes, one session.
For riders using multiple bikes: road and TT, road and gravel, or similar combinations. The same assessment applied across both bikes, ensuring the positions work together.
3 hours · Time-trial or triathlon.
Designed specifically for time-trial and triathlon setups. Positions are built around aerodynamics, power transfer and sustainability under effort.

Andy does his best work on road, TT and triathlon setups, particularly where the same problem keeps returning after one or two previous fits.

At Biking Luca, Av. Diputación 66, 03710 Calp, Alicante. Arrival details are sent with your booking confirmation.
Calpe sits about midway along the coast between Denia and Benidorm. Driving time to Biking Luca is roughly 13 minutes from Benissa, 15 from Altea, 22 from Benidorm, 25 from Moraira, 32 from Denia and 36 from Jávea. If you're coming from the Jalón valley or further inland, it's a straight run down.
Yes. Andy is a native English speaker, so the assessment, the explanation of what changed and the written record afterwards are all in English.
Yes, down to the equipment and the written record afterwards. The only difference is the room it happens in.
Custom insoles. Moulding and finishing a pair takes longer than a residency day allows, so that work stays at the Valencia studio.
Yes, though what you get out of it is slightly different. We can set the hire bike up properly for the week you're here, and the assessment itself travels home with you: you'll know what your own bike should be doing, and you'll have the numbers to check it against.
Your bike, your shoes, and the kit you actually ride in. If you have multiple saddles or pedal systems, bring the ones you use most often. If you've bought something new and haven't ridden it yet, bring that too, so we can check whether it's right for you before you commit to it.
Bib shorts and a close-fitting top, the same kit you'd ride in. We need to see how your body sits on the bike, not a silhouette.
You can, and a short easy spin is a good way to let the position settle. Don't book your hardest day of the trip for the afternoon of the fit, and give the change a few rides before you judge it.
There are only six appointments in each block, so this happens. Email andy@andy-brooke.com and you'll go on the list for the next dates, or Andy will offer you a slot at the Valencia studio.
Give it a proper adaptation window, a few weeks of real riding. If something still isn't right after that, come back to a Calpe block or the Valencia studio any time within three months and Andy will put it right. No extra charge.
Choose your fit, pick a time, and book online. You'll receive a short pre-fit form covering your bike, riding history and goals, so the session starts before you arrive.
