Bike Fitting Analysis

Physio-led bike position analysis to explain your pain, prevent injury and guide smarter aerodynamics.

In short

A physiotherapy-based analysis of your riding position from photo and video — Flora reads posture, joint angles and load patterns and advises how to change them to protect your body and ride faster. She does not physically fit or adjust the bike; she gives you the reasoning and targets to take to your fitter or mechanic.

Key benefits

  • Explains the link between your position and your injury, in plain language.
  • Advice you can hand to your bike fitter or mechanic to make targeted changes.
  • Better aerodynamics without loading the tissues that are already sore.

Who it's for

  • Road, gravel and triathlon athletes with recurring pain on the bike.
  • Riders chasing a more aerodynamic position without breaking down.
  • Anyone unsure whether their current setup is contributing to an injury.

Conditions Flora treats with Bike Fitting Analysis

  • Knee pain on the bike
  • Low-back pain from cycling
  • Neck, shoulder and hand numbness
  • Saddle discomfort and hotspots
  • Achilles and calf issues linked to cleat position

How Flora uses this in your treatment

You send Flora clear side-on photos and short video of yourself riding. She reviews saddle height and setback, hip and knee angles, back position, reach, head and neck posture, and how you load through the pedals.

She then explains — in the context of your specific injury or complaint — what in the position is likely driving it, and what changes would reduce that load while keeping you aerodynamic. You take that written advice to your bike fitter, coach or mechanic for the actual physical adjustments.

Full detail

Flora's bike fitting work is a physiotherapy analysis, not a physical fit. She does not adjust saddles, cleats or bars herself. What she does is read your body on the bike from photo and video, and tell you exactly how your position is affecting your injury, your comfort and your power.

That matters because most cycling pain — knees, low back, neck, hands, saddle area — is a position problem being expressed through tissue. Once the position is understood, targeted changes prevent the injury from coming back and often unlock a more aerodynamic, more efficient shape at the same time.

You leave with a clear written analysis and specific recommendations to hand to your bike fitter, coach or mechanic for the physical adjustments.

Frequently asked questions

Do you physically fit my bike?
No. Flora provides a physiotherapy-based analysis of your position and clear advice on what to change and why. The physical adjustments to saddle, cleats or bars are done by your bike fitter or mechanic using her recommendations.
What do I need to send?
Clear side-on photos of you on the bike in your normal riding position, plus short video from the same angle while pedalling steady. Include front-on video if hand or knee tracking is part of the concern.
When should I get a bike fitting analysis?
When pain or numbness keeps returning on the bike, before a new season, after buying a new bike, or when you want a more aerodynamic position without triggering an old injury.
