Our advanced bike fit covers everything in our standard fit, along with: an expanded physical assessment, pelvic stability evaluation with our WIVA IMU, cycling analysis at multiple intensities, and assessment while climbing using our Retul Levul wheel riser.
Our state of the art Retul 3D Motion Capture system allows us to take accurate measurements of the rider, while they’re riding at a realistic, real-world intensity. The Retul software tracks flashing LEDs placed on the joints, so we can calculate body angles and side-to-side knee motion. These angles are all measured to within less than a millimeter, making Retul one of the most accurate bike fitting tools in the world.
The WIVA inertial measurement unit (IMU) can detect the smallest movements in the pelvis, foot, and knee while pedaling. It is one of the first bike fit technologies that can track data outside, and during a ride. The WIVA unit can accurately measure pelvic stability and provide visual feedback to help riders work towards a more stable and powerful riding position.
Our Retul Levul is a wheel riser that allows us to simulate inclines up to 8% gradient. By increasing the resistance and slowing the cadence we can accurately recreate climbing conditions to assess both pedaling technique and posture. If you’re a rider that experiences discomfort while climbing, this is the perfect way to analyse what’s happening and identify the best solution.
