Bike Fit Literature

For those interested in the science of bike fitting, here is a list of research articles that I am compiling. For full access to articles, consider joining the Clearinghouse for Sport.

Title	​Author	​Year	​Link	Main Points
​Cycling Biomechanics Optimization-the (R) Evolution of Bike Fitting	​Swart, Jeroen Holliday, Wendy	​2019	​Article	- Training load and flexibility affect cycling position and performance. - Bike fitting should be dynamic and functional.
A Dynamic Approach to Cycling Biomechanics	​Swart, Jeroen Holliday, Wendy	2022	Article	- Joint kinematics change with intensity and fatigue. - Increasing hamstring flexibility is associated with improved aerodynamics and power.
Unique Concerns of the Woman Cyclist	Rozanne M. Puleo et al.	2022	​Article	​- Bike design specific for women is controversial; optimizing the bike fit to the rider is of greater value for injury reduction, comfort, and safety.
