Bike Fit

Bike fitting is a dynamic process that ensures harmony between the bike and its rider. The bike fitting service at Tempo Physiotherapy is designed to ensure optimum comfort and power, essential requirements for all cyclists.

Using Bikefit®, one of the most recognised bike fitting systems in the world, we aim to fit the bike to the rider, not the rider to the bike

The bikefit system includes the following:

  1. An interview which incorporates type of cycling, individual aspirations and goals, injury history, current problems on bike, fitness levels etc
  2. A full physical examination including flexibility, strength, body measurements (eg  reach, inside leg, foot type etc), core stability and examination of current or past injuries
  3. On the bike static and dynamic analysis.  This is carried out on your bike on a turbo trainer as our aim is to fit you correctly to your own bike.  Dynamic video analysis is carried out with measurements taken using laser technology.  Instant feedback can then be given on your cycling position and technique and appropriate corrections will be made.  If your equipment is not ideal (eg stem length, handlebar width) then appropriate recommendations will be made.  We do not place any pressure upon the customer to spend further money, however difficult to source equipment such as cleat wedges, leg length shims and in the shoe orthotics are available to buy from Tempo Physiotherapy.   
  4. Bike adjustment (eg cleat position, cleat wedging, saddle height, saddle fore/aft, handlebar width and position, stem length/angle/stacking)                                                                                                              
  5. Free Follow up As bike fitting can be a dynamic process we also offer a free follow up session within 12 weeks of the initial fit if any further changes need to be made                                                                           
  6. Summary document  detailing any prescribed exercises or recommended changes to your bike that cannot be done during the session will be e-mailed to you within 24 hours of the session.
