Takes the fundamental principles of Body Positioning and looks at how these elements relate to the cyclist traveling over rough ground, exploring the unique needs of off road cyclists including XC Mtb, Enduro, Downhill and Cyclocross.
The course explores the unique needs of off road cyclists including XC Mtb, Enduro, Downhill and Cyclocross. Cycling off road creates a much wider range of challenges to the human body and also sees the cyclist encounter a greater variation of forces than any other genre of cycling.
Off Road Positioning takes the fundamental principles of Body Positioning and looks at how these elements relate to the cyclist traveling over rough ground.
The bike fitter will learn practical methods for assessing the cyclist’s ability to deal with off road forces as well as techniques for positioning the bicycle to best resolve the challenges for a given kind of off road cycling.
Due to the cyclist’s greater need to confidently handle a bicycle off road this course also offers an introduction to bicycle handling, geometry and component selection.
