cleats - Foot gait analysis & correction
Cleat wedges are used to correct foot pronation, increase proprioception and provide better stability and control whilst cycling. They are also used to indirectly alter knee angle to reduce lateral or medial knee pain associated with bad leg tracking.
cleats - Foot arch analysis and correction
Appropriate arch supports help improve the stability of feet and increase power transfer through the foot.
Insoles help maintain a consistent foot size by controlling arch collapse which intern help reduce numbness and/or hot spots
Pelvis, knee, foot tracking analysis and correction
Preferably the knee should virtually track in a vertical line (straight up and down) and remain directly over the second toe during the pedal revolution. Poor tracking can be cause or ankle, knee or hip issues
cleats - rotational adjustment
Poor cleat position, specifically incorrect rotational placement is the leading cause cycling related knee issues. The sweet spot placement allows the foot to freely move throughout the whole pedal stroke without restriction of the pedal tension system.
cleats - fore/aft adjustment
Poor Fore/Aft cleat positioning can cause foot 'hot spots' and is main cause of cold /numb toes
saddle height adjustment
Common issues resulting from an inappropriate saddle height can include knee pain, saddle discomfort (pressure, numbness, sores), hip pain/impingement, hamstrings tendinopathy, achilles issues, back pain, neck pain, and hand and wrist pain/numbness. However, you don’t necessarily need to have pain or injury for then saddle height not to be optimal! An inappropriate saddle height can also result in a reduced power and efficiency.
saddle fore/aft adjustment
Saddle fore/aft is used to set optimal rider weight distribution and is the main adjustment affecting weight distribution on the bike and how much upper body work is needed to stabilise the body under load.
saddle tilt adjustment
The aim is to find the comfortable sweet spot, where the pelvis is stable and supported, you have sufficient pelvic rotation forward, perineum pressure is minimised, and the hands are not overloaded
handlebar rotation
Extreme rotation of dropped handlebars can cause bike instability, excessive wrist/elbow angles, which can cause excessive triceps fatigue and/or numbness to wrist and hands and even tightness in neck and shoulders
*handlebar size/shape recommendation
Based on intended bike use and rider proportions we can make recommendations on a more suitable bar width or type.
stem height adjustment
Sub optimal stem length or height can effect rider weight distribution
stem size/angle recommendation
Based on intended bike use and rider proportions we can make recommendations on a more suitable stem length and angle.
brake lever adjustments
Extreme rotation of levers can cause bike instability, excessive wrist/elbow angles, which can cause excessive triceps fatigue and/or numbness to wrist and hands and even tightness in neck and shoulders
