ABOUT ME
Two wheels
One passion
For as long as I can remember, my life has revolved around bikes. First laps as a kid, then skate and dirt parks on 20-inch BMX bikes, downhill and enduro in the Alps – and today road, gravel and triathlon. Two wheels have been with me all my life.
Workshop & engineering
The bike shop was my second home. When I wasn’t there after school, I was taking my own bike apart and putting it back together. Trying, wrenching, optimising – that shaped me.
As a mechanical engineer, I’m still fascinated by anything that works precisely: crisp shifting, bearings that run buttery smooth, load-optimised tube junctions in a carbon frame – and in the end you simply glide down a beautiful Alpine pass.
How I got into bike fitting
For a long time I experimented on my own: stems, handlebars, saddles – I kept swapping things because something always hurt somewhere. The aha moment came when I read an interview with Phil Burt and finished his book in one go.
Suddenly a lot made sense: why saddle height and knee pain are connected, or why the wrong handlebar width causes neck problems. I tried it on myself first, then on my wife and friends.
The results were so clear that it turned into a new passion: bike fitting, somewhere between art and science. When it works, one more person is happy on two wheels – and that’s what drives me.
Zentrierstudio Potsdam
With Zentrierstudio I’ve turned my hobby into something more professional and created a space that gives it all structure and shape.
My goal is to get you as centred on the bike as possible – practical, not over-engineered: so nothing hurts, you enjoy riding more and simply last longer.
In the end it’s not about perfect numbers or formulas, but about you and your bike in balance.
