CLINICAL BIKE FIT
ABOUT OUR BIKE FIT
Harmony of Man & Machine
A bike fit is much more than about fitting the man to the machine, it is a harmony of both. Our bike fit is unique from the rest, we look at how we can optimise you and the bike to work in perfect synchrony.
THE CORNERSTONES OF A BIKE FIT
Aero | Power | Comfort
A bike fit performed by one of our expert bike fitters has been shown to increase comfort, improve performance and reduce injury risk.
Aerodynamics
The pillar of aerodynamics and power are synonymous with each other. Being more aerodynamic will reduce your drag coefficient (CdA) for time-trialists and triathletes so they can attain greater speeds for the same power output.
Power
The interface between biology (human) and engineering (machine) is where cyclists are looking for performance edges. With GebioMized® motion analysis we will be able to optimise your power performance.
Comfort
Each cyclist will resonate with a different pillar. Comfort is interchangeable with sustainability. So you can perform for longer on the saddle.
SMALL CHANGES, COLLECTIVELY BIG GAINS
Power in Numbers
We have performed bike fits for hundreds of cycle enthusiasts, amateurs and professionals. At Physio On The Green, every cyclist we see will benefit from a position that promotes comfort and performance, whether your out with friends in the hills, on a club ride or riding in the pro peloton.
Marginal Gains
The theory that improving and optimising your performance by a small amount across a number of different areas will lead to much more significant, noticeable improvements overall.
THE OVERALL PROCESS
Our Four Step Process
1. Movement Screen
The process starts with a verbal and physical assessment. We analyse your body’s limitations, previous injuries and pains. We perform a movement screen protocol measuring various angles and strength tests that will give us an understanding of your performance.
2. Bike Analysis
In the next step, you will mount your bike or jig-fit where 8 anatomical pointers will be placed on your body. Using Gebiomized® Software 40,320 variations of your current bike fit will be analysed.
3. Data Analysis
The real-time data will be analysed and scrutinised against the data taken from your movement screen. From here, we will modify your bike position to find the optium position for you.
4. Bike Fit Report
Once your new bike fit is applied, a detailed digital report with the data points, measurements, and angulations will be collated and presented to you for future reference. We normally advise a follow-up appointment, to check your performance levels and make finer modifications if needed.
