Bicycle analysis at NUMO

Do you experience discomfort during long rides on the bicycle? In our bicycle analysis, we get to the root of the causes. Here you will learn what we examine and how we can help you.

What is analyzed?

In our bike analysis, we aim for the best possible symmetry of movement on the bike. Whether you are riding a mountain bike, a racing bike, an e-bike, or a regular everyday bike, there is an optimal setting for everyone.
We analyze the seating position, individual characteristics in relation to the bike's geometry, any corrective and compensatory movements, as well as other important biomechanical factors for optimal load on the musculoskeletal system.

How can discomfort arise?

There are various reasons that can lead to discomfort while cycling. Most often, discomfort arises from improper load or asymmetries in the movement sequence. These can often be corrected through small changes to the bike's settings or through corrections using insoles.

How is it possible to control the position on the bike through the feet or an insole?

The most significant changes in position on the bike can be achieved through the contact points. We focus on the position on the saddle, but also on the contact between the pedal and foot or cycling shoe. Here, one can create a greater change through the position of the cleats and through insoles in the shoes.

Do insoles fit in cycling shoes?

Yes, normally orthopedic insoles fit easily into cycling shoes . You can remove the original insole from the shoes to create a bit more space. If the corrections of the existing everyday or sports insole are suitable for use on the bike, it could also be used in the cycling shoe. Otherwise, we can make insoles for cycling shoes slightly thinner than regular insoles and customize them with bike-specific corrections for cycling use.
