Pro Bikefit - Optimizing position

Often many euros are spent to the ‘perfect’ bike, without thinking of the perfect position for this bike. For both amateurs and professional athletes, it is important to ride with the proper bicycle adjustment. The correct saddle height, the proper positioning of the cleats, the proper height of the steering wheel ... All these factors are important for the correct setting of the bike. With our bicycle analysis we strive for the perfect balance between comfort and efficiency to optimize performance, and this for the road bike, mountain bike or time trial bike.

 

Target:

 

- Reduce complaints during cycling

  (E.g. complaints on the knee, back, neck, saddle complaints...)

- Improve your comfort on the bike

- Maximize performance

  • Intake

  • Extensive body screening
  • By making a comprehensive body screening the body movement is analyzed. Everyone is different, so that means also movement patterns are different. Therefore it is important taking this in mind regarding your posture on the bike. If certain issues/problems are identified, advice will be noted for your physiotherapist.
    - Mobility of the joints
    - Flexibility of the muscles
    - Stability of the body
    - Difference between lengths of legs
    - Foot structure

  • Measurement present bike setting

  • Detailed analysis riding position
    - Saddle pressure measurement
    - Video analysis of the cycling movement

  • Customize bike positioning
    - Proper position of the bike (if possible immediate adjustments to the bike)
    - Proper position of the cleats
    - Use of test saddles (Selle Italia - SMP - ISM) if necessary eg. saddle complaints

  • Extensive reporting
    -
    Correct adjustment of the bike
    - Discussion before-after positioning using video images
    - Advice for exercises with the physiotherapist (if necessary)

  • Follow-up included for one year
    The search for an optimal position on the bike takes time and is often a dynamic process. A gradual adjustment of the bicycle is often more appropriate than an excessive adjustment at once because the body needs time to adapt. Therefore, future alignments to "grow" into the optimal position are also included! If a test saddle does not give the optimum result during long training rides, it is always possible to try out another test saddle. When buying new shoes in the first-coming year, correct setting of the cleats is also included.
