Bike Fit
​Optimise your Cycling​

Cycling is a wonderful sport activity where the human body needs to become one unit with the bike. It is crucial to optimise cyclist position on the bike (bike fit) to increase performance, comfort and reduce risk of injury. ​

What to expect during a bike fitting session.

Consultation is the first step. Massimo will ask you questions on your weekly mileage, past and recent injuries and past medical history.   
​Before bike fit - Cycling observation and video recording.
Biomechanical physical assessment (muscle tensions, range of motions etc.).
Foot/Ankle assessment.
Cleats and wedges setting.
Electromyography EMG muscle activation analysis
Saddle pressure analysis
​Pedalling technique evaluation 
More cycling observation.
Saddle Height/Fore/Aft, Handlebar position.
Cycling observation and re-setting.
After bike fit - Video recording and report.​

Electromyography (EMG) & Saddle Pressure Mapping.

EMG myontec - Using a special cycling shorts helpful information can be gathered to understand cyclist's muscle activation. When we have a neuromuscular limb asymmetricity - the cyclist is making one leg working more than the other. In this case the combination of bike fitting, exercise plan and treatment/rehabilitation is successful to re-balancing the muscles leg activation.

​Wiva saddle pressure mapping - A special device able to recording a pressure map of the saddle while you are cycling. This tool is helpful, in the case where we have discomforts or pins & needles or numbness in the saddle area.
