The Wheelhouse runs IDMatch 3D bike fitting, Selle Italia UNICA custom 3D-printed saddles and saddle pressure mapping under one roof in Calgary — three tools almost no shop in North America has together.
The Wheelhouse runs IDMatch 3D bike fitting, Selle Italia UNICA custom 3D-printed saddles and saddle pressure mapping under one roof in Calgary. Individually these are specialist tools. Together they mean a rider can be measured, diagnosed and then have the solution manufactured — without leaving the building, and without a test-and-hope loop that takes months.
The world's first markerless 3D bike fitting system. Nothing is attached to your body, so nothing changes how you move. It scans you and it scans your existing bike, then sets the fitting jig to replicate the position you actually ride before optimising it. CAD $399, approximately two hours.

A sensor array measures where your weight genuinely lands and whether the load is symmetrical. It replaces the weeks-long test-ride loop with a measurement you can see in the session, and it is how we identify saddle problems that feel vague but are not. Saddle pressure mapping
Where no stock saddle works, UNICA solves it by manufacturing the saddle to your body rather than adapting your body to the saddle. Shape is defined by your fit data and pressure profile, then 3D printed. UNICA custom saddle consultation
Most shops can sell you a saddle. Far fewer can measure your position properly. Almost none can measure your pressure distribution. And the number that can then have a saddle manufactured to the result is very small indeed — which is why riders travel for this.
The practical difference is that we stop guessing. Position is measured, pressure is measured, and when the answer requires a part that does not exist in a catalogue, it gets made.
Riders who have been through several saddles without solving the problem. Riders with numbness, sores or one-sided discomfort. Riders with asymmetry. Riders spending long hours in the saddle on a bike that is otherwise exactly right. And riders who simply want the contact point of a good bike to match the rest of it.
