Bike Fitting
Proper bike fitting allows riders to maximize power, efficiency, and comfort. This is vital for all types of cyclists; from commuters to racers. Poor fitment on your bicycle can contribute to overuse injuries, reduced riding endurance, and increased pain/numbness.
Bike fitting will involve a physiotherapy assessment detailing any biomechanical issues that may affect your ride. Adjustments to the bike will then be made to optimize the best riding position specific to you. Therapeutic exercises may be prescribed as well to prevent injuries and further improve your ride.
