We spent and interesting day yesterday with a guy called Mike Veal of Bike Dynamics in Leamington Spa. Mike runs a small business that takes all of the guess work out of fitting a bike to a rider. Over the course of a couple of hours he videos and measure you so that a series of small adjustments can be made to the bike.
Correct bike fit is the key to minimising injury and I wished I had done all of this a year ago. My left knee is a problem currently and I hope that the changes that Mike has made are enough to sort me out.
The picture shows how he measures the rider geometry and can therefore calculate the modifcations to the bike set up. He also discovered that my left leg is 8mm longer than my right leg and suggested that I dont get lost in the desert.
