members benefits – update

a bit of the feeback we have received as part of the spr survey was, “what are the benefits of being a member of spr???”  well besides the organised training rides and social interaction there are also a series of members benefits.  these are deals that we have with local business that, on the presentation of your membership card, can get you some pretty good deals.

not all of these deals are bike related and as you can see from the member benefits page, there are some that are from the business’ of spr members.  if you are interested in offering a members benefit to the club drop us an email and we can see what you have to offer.

today we have two new benefits to offer.  well actually, they are old benefits, but we have changed the business’ that we are now running them through.  so if you are after a new bike helmet or want to be set up on your bike correctly, see below for more information.

 

  • bike fitting

    • Total Triathlon is offering any spr member at the presentation of their licence, a discounted road bike fit session for only $50 (not including parts).  the fit is handled by Stuart Durham(Eclipse Fitness head coach) in the store and will cover –
      • basic laser cleat alignment
      • seat height and fore – aft adjustment
      • handle bar reach.

this fit is for the enthusiast who wants to ensure, as their training/time spent on the bike increases they remain comfortable and injury free.  it is also aimed at getting correct muscle engagement and back relief.

the fitting can take approximately an hour on different individuals and also included is a follow up inspection to ensure satisfaction.

 

  • helmets

  • Ride Advice is now offering any spr member on presentation of their licence, a white/silver Giro Ionos helmet for a discounted price of $250 (rrp $299).  these helmets have the all important aussie standards logo inside which you will need if you want to race or actually obey the law.  race organisers are now checking helmets and not letting anyone with an international helmet race.  you can also void your insurance if your helmet doesn’t meet aussie standards.
