Do you want to sit on your bike without pain - whether for your daily commute, your next gravel tour or bikepacking? Then a professional bike fitting is the key. In this article, you'll find out what a bike fitting is, how it works and why it's worth visiting swissbiomechanics.<\/strong><\/p>

What is a bike fitting - and why is it so important?<\/h2>

Bikefitting is the biomechanically based adaptation of your bike to your body. The aim is to achieve a riding position that is both comfortable and conducive to performance. A poorly adjusted bike can lead to pain, overloading or loss of performance in the long term. A professional fitting helps you to ride more efficiently - without any discomfort.<\/p>

The Swiss ETH spin-off company swissbiomechanics specialises in biomechanical analyses. The company is represented at locations such as Winterthur, Zurich, Bern, Basel and Einsiedeln - but the bike analyses themselves take place exclusively in Einsiedeln. There, the team analyses your movement patterns and adapts your bike precisely to your body - regardless of whether you are riding your city bike to work or preparing for a race.<\/p>

\"Anyone who has ever come back from a tour with hands that have fallen asleep or aching knees knows that the right riding position is crucial. Our bike fitting ensures that you not only arrive safely, but also feel like going on your next tour.<\/p>\n\n
