Align Your Bike with Your Body

 

At Physiotherapy Performance Institute (PPI), we combine physiotherapy expertise with cycling biomechanics to help you ride more efficiently, comfortably, and injury-free.
Simon has worked with cyclists of all levels—from weekend riders to competitive athletes—ensuring every setup reflects the rider’s individual mechanics, strengths, and limitations.

Cycling is unique: your body and bike act as one unit. When that relationship is balanced, you move better, perform stronger, and stay healthier on the bike.

 

What’s Involved in a PPI Bike Fit

A Bike Fit Assessment at PPI runs for approximately two hours, balancing injury prevention, comfort, and performance.

1. Rider Assessment (approx. 1 hour)

We start with a full physiotherapy-based assessment to understand your body’s movement patterns, posture, and limitations:

    • Body measurements and alignment

    • Muscle strength and asymmetry

    • Flexibility and joint range of motion

  • Areas of tightness or restriction affecting power or comfort
 

2. Bike & Ride Analysis (approx. 1 hour)

Next, we assess how your body interacts with the bike:

    • On-bike assessment

    • High-speed video analysis of your cycling mechanics

  • Identification of setup changes to improve efficiency and comfort
 

 

After Your Assessment

You’ll receive a detailed report outlining tailored recommendations, including:

    • Seat height and fore–aft position

    • Handlebar drop, stem length, and reach

    • Cleat alignment and foot positioning

This all impacts the role of ach muscle group, with subtle adjustments making a big impact on the bike. Whether you’re looking to optimise your ride, or modify things due to injury – PPI can help you.

We typically don’t make mechanical adjustments in-clinic, allowing you to take your personalised report to a specialist bike servicing centre to implement changes precisely.

 

Who It’s For?

    • Road cyclists

    • Triathletes

    • Recreational riders wanting improved comfort and efficiency

Whether you’re chasing performance gains or simply trying to ride pain-free, a PPI Bike Fit helps you get more from every kilometre.
