"I'm incredibly proud of what has been achieved with Adaptive HP since 2016. From the ground up, Adaptive HP has organically grown into a thriving bike fitting business, offering meaningful, science-driven service.
Jordy has been around Adaptive HP from the start and is well-embedded in the local cycling scene. Erin jumped at the opportunity to take on bike fitting work and has excelled at the task. Collectively, Erin and Jordy bring a suitable skill set and a keen interest in bike fitting, equipment, and position optimisation.
I'm happy to see Erin and Jordy take the bull by the horns, invigorating new energy into Adaptive HP. The legacy will live on, and I'm excited to see it thrive."
