For those interested in the science of bike fitting, here is a list of research articles that I am compiling. For full access to articles, consider joining the Clearinghouse for Sport.
Title | Author | Year | Link | Main Points |
Cycling Biomechanics Optimization-the (R) Evolution of Bike Fitting | Swart, Jeroen Holliday, Wendy | 2019 | - Training load and flexibility affect cycling position and performance. - Bike fitting should be dynamic and functional. | |
A Dynamic Approach to Cycling Biomechanics | Swart, Jeroen Holliday, Wendy | 2022 | - Joint kinematics change with intensity and fatigue. - Increasing hamstring flexibility is associated with improved aerodynamics and power. | |
Unique Concerns of the Woman Cyclist | Rozanne M. Puleo et al. | 2022 | - Bike design specific for women is controversial; optimizing the bike fit to the rider is of greater value for injury reduction, comfort, and safety. |
