Frame Geometry
Designed for riders who are 4’10” to 5’9″
This is a longer chain stay. It gives you a more stable and controlled feel. It is longer than most, and will feel really controlled but spins will feel sluggish
Steep head tube angles make the bike “snappy” meaning more responsive to fast turns.
A less steep head tube gives you more control.
The seat tube angle can adjust how the top tube feels by making it more or less steep. Most are this angle, it doesn’t change very often.
The bottom bracket height adjusts how low or high your feet are off the ground. Most completes will be this height.
This is a tall standover.
A tall stand over allows you to pinch more of the seat for bars and t-bogs.
2021 Fit Series One (SM) Price
The 2021 Series One is priced right at $399. This is really close to the 2021 Kink gap, and is pretty close in quality. However, the 2021 Kink Whip is just a little more and is much better quality.
2021 Fit Series One (SM) Quality
This is an entry-level bike with entry-level parts. I would not recommend this bike if you are an experienced rider.
- Tri-moly frame – What is trimoly?
- Single wall rims – Why does this matter?
- Unsealed bearings
- Pressed headset instead of integrated

2021 Fit Series One (SM) Conclusion
Last year, fit’s line was a little overpriced. However, it seems like they fixed that with the 2021 Series One. It is priced close to similar quality bikes. That makes me happy.
This bike is for a new rider who does not have very much experience, but want’s to try out the sport. The geometry will help a brand new rider feel confident and controlled, but the quality will not hold up to advanced riding.
