Bike Fits: An often overlooked factor in preventing injuries and enjoying your ride

2/15/2016

Are you looking to ride for longer periods of time this year with more comfort? Planning on amping up your mileage and want to prevent injury? Perhaps you would like to increase your power? All of these things can be addressed in a dynamic bike fit.

Vega has recently accepted the position as the R
etül Fit Technician at Bicycle Village in Boulder. As a special offer to Hill Climb Acupuncture clients, you may book a dynamic fit at Bicycle Village for 50% off, as long as you schedule before the end of February (actual fit may take place at a later date)!

A bike fit using Retül technology includes the following following steps:
  • Initial physical assessment of you, the rider, where we can address your concerns about performance, pain, or any other issues you hope to alleviate during the bike fit. 
  • We put you on your bike on the trainer and then I strategically place LED markers on eight anatomical points: wrist, elbow, shoulder, hip, knee, ankle, heel, and toe. 
  • As you pedal, Retül's sensor bar gathers real-time, three-dimensional data of your pedal strokes and movements. 
  • Your data is compiled into a reader-friendly report for analysis. 
  • I assess your position and make necessary adjustments. 
  • The Zin, Retül's handheld digitizer, allows me to digitally measure the your bike at 13-15 points. The Zin can measure fixed points, contours, and curves, and provides a complete digital map of the bike. 
  • The fit information is saved and stored on our computer. The data includes your personal profile, measurements from the fit, bike measurements, and your final fit position. 
  • I will be able to access and print these records for comparison and tracking of historical fit data for you. We can schedule follow up appointments to ensure that you are satisfied with your fit and the fit experience, and with this data tracking can more easily and quickly make adjustments.

Bike fits are necessary tools to help you reach your fitness goals. They ensure that your positioning on the bike will enable you to have the most enjoyable, powerful, comfortable, and efficient ride possible. If you would like to take advantage of my offer of 50% off a dynamic fit, please email BVRetulBoulder@gmail.com to schedule an appointment. As Hill Climb Acupuncture's mission states, "we believe wholeheartedly in the joy of movement and wish to assist others in moving their bodies with skill, speed, and agility in order to promote well-being and happiness." This is just another way I can help you achieve happiness on your bike!
