If you are a biker and you experience any of these problems during or after your rides, your problem may be because you are not fitted to your bike properly.  An ergonomic bike fit can reduce pain, prevent injuries, and improve your pedaling efficiency and aerodynamics and actually make you faster.

Saddle Adjustments

SaddleTilt, Height, and Fore/Aft are all parameters that will be analyzed on the bike fit.  This will affect the angles of your knees, hips, lower back, and shoulders when riding, which can produce pain.

 

Handlebar Adjustments 

Stem length, Handlebar Width, Height, and Angle all affect your reach when on your bike.  A proper reach allows you to ride comfortably as well as decrease the amount of wind resistance when riding.

Cleat Adjustments

Adjustments can be made to the cleats in order to improve the alignment of the knees over feet.  This can prevent many overuse injuries, as well as reduce knee, ankle, and foot pain.
