Movement analysis in cycling and bike fitting

Accurate analysis of pedaling technique

Our biomechanical capture systems offer a detailed analysis of pedaling technique, identifying any biomechanical deviations that may increase the risk of injuries. With this information, cycling professionals can implement specific adjustments to improve efficiency and reduce stress in vulnerable areas.

Posture and load distribution assessment

Proper load distribution is essential for injury prevention. Our solutions allow for a precise assessment of the cyclist’s posture and load on different areas of the body during pedaling. This facilitates the identification of imbalances and pressure points, allowing for personalized adjustments to minimize the risk of injuries.

Optimization of bike fit

Adjusting the bike according to each cyclist’s biomechanical characteristics is key. Our biomechanical capture systems provide detailed data to achieve a customized fit, improving comfort and reducing the likelihood of injuries related to an improper position.

Continuous performance monitoring

Cycling professionals can continuously track the progress of cyclists. This allows for adjustments to injury prevention strategies based on changing needs, ensuring a proactive and effective approach.

With the help of integrated biomechanical analyses, you stand out and offer a unique experience to your clients, generating concrete sales opportunities.

Additionally, the ability to customize products or services according to the specific needs of the end user simplifies the sales process, establishing a closer and more direct connection by meeting their requirements precisely and tailored. Our clients can rely on a system that captures clinically validated data, allowing efficient analysis of the obtained data. This not only saves time for professionals but also adds distinctive value to their business.

Furthermore, biomechanical analysis is a crucial part of choosing a bicycle to ensure it fits your anatomy and riding style properly. Therefore, our systems offer improvements in various aspects of the purchasing process:

• Bike size.
• Saddle position.
• Handlebar distance.
• Pedal adjustments.
• Saddle ergonomics analysis.

Posture analysis

Our solutions can track the precise position of different parts of the cyclist’s body, such as the head, shoulders, hips, and legs. This allows for the evaluation of the cyclist’s posture and adjustments to optimize alignment and minimize wind resistance.

Bike fit optimization

By capturing the cyclist’s movement on the bike, the interaction between the body and the bicycle can be analyzed. This helps adjust saddle height, handlebar position, and other components to ensure an ergonomic and efficient fit.

Pedaling biomechanics

The system can provide detailed data on joint movement during pedaling and the distribution of load on each leg. This allows for evaluating the efficiency of the pedaling cycle and making adjustments to the technique to maximize power and reduce the risk of injuries.

Power analysis

Combining motion capture with power meter data provides a comprehensive understanding of how the cyclist applies force to the pedals in relation to their position and movement. This is essential for improving power production and efficiency.

Detection of biomechanical deviations

Our  system can identify deviations or asymmetries in the cyclist’s biomechanics. This is crucial for addressing potential issues before they become injuries.

Aerodynamics evaluation

Our motion capture solutions, combined with fluid analysis, can evaluate the cyclist’s aerodynamics. This involves analyzing how posture and movements affect wind resistance, which is vital for speed-focused cyclists.

Data-driven training

The data collected by the STT Systems motion capture system can be used to customize specific training programs to improve specific areas of the cyclist’s biomechanics.

Performance evolution tracking

If motion capture is regularly performed, the cyclist’s biomechanics changes over time can be tracked. This is useful for constantly adjusting position, technique, and training as the cyclist evolves.
