Sometimes, the fit isn’t the problem. The component you’re fitting around is.
Our client presented with asymmetric loading, hand pressure and right knee discomfort.
Pressure mapping/testing showed positional changes alone weren’t solving the asymmetry. Significant wear on the existing saddle compromised how the pelvis was being supported.
If the pelvis doesn’t have a stable platform, compensations can show up at the knees, back, hands and overall riding position.
During the fit, we worked through the system rather than chasing one symptom, so cleats were repositioned…
… and more appropriate foot support was introduced. Today’s lesson: sometimes what looks like a movement problem starts with a support problem.
