Ergon IP3 insoles, designed by Solestar. These fixed-height insoles suit riders with a low to medium arch height, looking for extra rigity and stability at the foot. They help to prevent moderate arch collapse and also help to prevent supination of the foot (feet rolling out).

G8 Pro 2620 insoles These customisable insoles include 5 different height arch supports which can be fixed in a variety of positions to suit low to high arches. Will prevent significant arch collapse and can be used asymmetrically. @g8_performance #bikefitadvice #insoles

Here demonstrates the effect of excessively worn cleats. Check how this rider's foot shuffles around through each pedal stroke. The foot/pedal interface forms the foundation of your position and instability here will have knock on effects throughout your riding. #bikefitadvice

We have lots of riders coming through, unsure of how to measure & set the angle of curved saddles like this one. Try measuring the mid 3rd of the saddle and leveling. This will mean there is no unwanted rise from mid to nose & allows for the tail to kick up as has been designed.

Here's another fine example how stock insoles in cycle shoes are poor. The lump is known as a met. bump, however in these it is merely a hollow raise in the foam that will completely disappear. The illusion is the insole has structure & is of some worth, the truth is it is not.

These are a great set of bars, especially ideal for riders with small hands or those looking to reduce the reach on their road position. With most drop handlebars hovering around 75mm - 85mm reach, at 65mm these can be really useful. #bikefit #bikefitadvice

Not a bad pair of bikes 😉! These come to us courtesy of a client in Sweden 🇸🇪 Both to be set up, according to previous bike fit data from when he travelled to us, and then sent back to Sweden, followed up with an online bike fit on another machine #Bikefitting #cycling #bikefit

What angle are your aero bars set at? More importantly, what drove the decision to set them there? #bikefit #triathlontalk #ironmantri #timetrial #aero

S U S T A I N A B L E This should be your first aim for setting up your IM Tri position. Always opt for a position which you can hold comfortably and for a long time. With consistency comes speed and once consistent, aerodynamic fine-tuning can be then considered. #bikefit

There are occasions where motion or video capture won't tell you much more than a well-trained eye. In those instances we're greatful to have found what I believe to be the most insightful and relevant technology currently available. Myontec #bikefit #bikefitadvice

With a persistent neck impingement concern and a bike with limiting adjustment, we switched over to the bikefit jig to identify an ideal riding setup. Once identified we assist each step of the order, then once the order is place, we wait... #newbikeadvice #newbikeday #bikefit
