Chris is a Retül Certified bike fit specialist with previous certifications from Serotta International Cycling Institute and Body Geometry Fit with over 10 years of experience and knowledge. He has worked with every type of bike imaginable along with clients from all walks of life. Elite road and triathlon racers, mountain bike racers completing Leadville, Enduro athletes, riders aiming to complete the Tour Divide and passionate cyclists wanting to enjoy their rides pain free all receive a tailormade experience based on their needs.

Originally from New Jersey, Chris grew up riding and racing road, cross country and cyclocross all over the north east. Seeing riders progress from their first bike into seasoned racers or passionate riders has given him a strong empathy for people new to the bike world. Educating others and passing along knowledge is incredibly rewarding for him. He loves teaching passionate riders everything from the basics of changing a flat tire, the pros and cons of different equipment or how to maintain and strengthen their body after a fit.

His passion for cycling and bikes started at an early age and has been a through line in life ever since. With a humble start sweeping floors and building kids bikes at his local shop as a teenager, Chris grew his skills as a mechanic and started his path as a bike fitter while also completing a Mechanical Engineering degree at TCNJ. After working in New York City as an engineer and bike fitting in his spare time, Chris took the opportunity to help build Hilltop Bicycles, one of the most successful bike studios in New Jersey and New York City. Bike fitting and premium level service became a full time career which remained until moving to Salt Lake City in 2016.

Chris kept his fit and technical skills sharp while working for Specialized Bicycles and getting further immersed into the cycling world after moving to SLC. His desire to directly improve the experience of the riders in his community has brought him to Peak State Fit where he is practicing his passion everyday. His technical knowledge expands into all aspects of cycling and he maintains an impressive level of detail in both bike fitting and building a rider’s bespoke dream bike from the frame up.

Whether you’re looking to get your bike fitted for injury prevention, optimize your position for your racing season or plan your dream bike build, Chris has the knowledge, experience and passion to guide you through the next phase in your cycling journey.
