Pedal Stroke Analysis

How efficient is your pedal stroke? Are you recruiting all the necessary muscles to make round full strokes? You have been riding for some time now. You feel smooth, and your friends think you look good on the bike, but are you actually pedaling correctly? Riding longer with less effort is easily accomplished when you apply power throughout your entire pedal stroke. Our pedal stroke analysis service can help you understand how to achieve the ultimate pedal stroke.

A proper, smooth, pedal stroke is an integral part of efficient cycling. In order to be a proficient cyclist, you need to do more than produce high wattage numbers. You must smoothly transfer those watts to the pedals in order to ride as efficiently as possible. Pedaling smoothly is not as easy as it appears and requires training, instruction, practice, coordination, strength, and drills (not to mention a well fitting bike).

Using the Computrainer SpinScan, we work with you to identify and eliminate inefficiencies in your pedal stroke using instruction, training, and drills. The SpinScan is a complex piece of software that graphically depicts your pedal stroke and gives data points which reflect various measures of efficiency, including left-right power distribution and roundness of the pedal stroke. The duration of this service is 60–90 minutes.
