Want to cycle faster?  The key isn't just the bike.  It's you.

Discover the top reasons a clinical bike fit is essential for every cyclist — before you make your next purchase.

For cyclists seeking the ultimate performance, a Clinical Bike Fit is the gold standard, combining the precision of a dynamic bike fit with the expertise of physiotherapy. Unlike traditional bike fits, which focus solely on adjusting the bike to the rider, a clinical bike fit takes it a step further—ensuring that both the bike and the body are perfectly aligned for optimal performance, comfort, and injury prevention.

How a Clinical Bike Fit Works

1. Assessing the Rider’s Current Position
   The process begins with a thorough assessment of your cycling posture, pedaling mechanics, and joint alignment using advanced tools like 3D motion capture and wearable muscle technology in conjunction with a stationary bike ride assessment. These tools detect inefficiencies, injuries, or imbalances that could hinder your performance or cause discomfort.  Additionally, quantum biokinematics and physio-engineering principles are applied to understand your body’s anatomical limitations and how your physical movements might be inducing pain in other muscle groups. If your hip alignment is off, it could be causing excess strain on your lower back during climbs, which we would address by adjusting your saddle height and tilt and fixing imbalances during rehab later.  

2. Addressing the Root Causes
   If the assessment reveals pathologies, inefficiencies, or pain points, we integrate physiotherapy to correct them before proceeding with bike adjustments. This includes strengthening weak areas, improving flexibility, and addressing imbalances.

   • Using design thinking, we analyze how interconnected areas of the body contribute to inefficiencies. For example, weaknesses in the hips and glutes can lead to uneven pedaling power. In such cases, we prescribe exercises to activate and strengthen these muscles.
   • Similarly, if imbalances in the hips stem from issues in the neck or ankle, we delve deeper to treat the root cause, ensuring the entire kinetic chain works harmoniously.
   • Through design thinking, we compare data from muscle analytics and biokinematic studies to help prescribe and design exercises that strengthen required muscle groups and correct bad postures. Combining methods from manual therapy, physiotherapy and rehab-integrated sports-specific pilates, we might develop programs to improve your core stability and flexibility, which can directly enhance your cycling posture and power transfer.

3. Adjusting the Bike for Seamless Integration
   Once the body is optimised, laser-precise adjustments are made to the bike. This includes fine-tuning:

   • Saddle height and tilt
   • Handlebar reach and angle
   • Pedal alignment and frame geometry
     These adjustments are tailored to the newly rehabilitated biomechanics, ensuring that both bike and body perform in perfect harmony.

4. Final Optimisation
   In the last step, the fully optimized rider and adjusted bike are analysed together. Using tools like power metering and motion capture, every detail is fine-tuned to maximize efficiency, comfort, and speed.

Why Choose a Clinical Bike Fit?

1. Cycle Faster, Longer, and Stronger
   By addressing root causes of discomfort and inefficiencies, a clinical bike fit helps you ride pain-free and achieve peak performance.

2. Prevent Injuries and Enhance Recovery
   Through integrated physiotherapy and rehab-focused solutions, the process prevents injuries and supports recovery for existing issues.

3. Personalized and Precise
   Unlike conventional bike fits, which rely on generic adjustments, a clinical bike fit is highly customized. It considers your unique physiology, biomechanics, injuries, and even your lifestyle to create a fit that’s truly yours.
