Ride More Comfortably.

Stay Injury Free.

Conducted by APA Titled Sports Physiotherapist and experienced cyclist Ben Haning.

Whether you’re experiencing pain on the bike, looking to improve performance, training for an event, or have just purchased a new bike, a professional bike fit can help you get the most out of every ride.

At Elite Physiotherapy, our bike fitting service combines expert physiotherapy assessment, advanced biomechanical knowledge, and years of cycling experience to optimise the connection between you and your bike.

Unlike a standard bike fit, we assess not only your bike setup, but also your mobility, strength, injury history, and riding goals. This allows us to create a position that is comfortable, efficient, and tailored specifically to your body.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

No. A bike fit can be useful whether you are completely pain-free or experiencing cycling-related discomfort.

Common reasons for booking a bike fit include knee pain, hip pain, lower back pain, neck or shoulder discomfort, numbness or tingling, saddle discomfort, foot pain or recurrent injuries that seem to occur during or after riding.

A physiotherapy bike fit combines cycling-specific bike fitting with a detailed assessment of your movement, mobility, strength and injury history.

Rather than simply adjusting your bike to standard measurements, we consider how your body interacts with the bike and how your position relates to your individual needs, symptoms and cycling goals.

This is particularly useful for riders who have persistent pain, previous injuries or specific performance goals.

Please bring:

  • Your bike
  • The cycling shoes you normally ride in
  • Your usual cycling kit
  • Any cleats, insoles or accessories you regularly use
  • Any equipment you are considering changing

It is best to bring the bike in the configuration you normally ride it.

Wear your normal cycling clothing where possible, including cycling shorts or bib shorts and your usual cycling shoes.

This allows us to assess your position under conditions that closely reflect how you normally ride.

Yes. If you are considering purchasing a new bike, a bike fit can help establish the riding position and key measurements that should guide your purchase.

This can help when comparing different frame sizes and geometries and may reduce the risk of purchasing a bike that is difficult to set up correctly for your body.

If you are unsure which bike or frame size to purchase, please contact us before buying so we can discuss the best approach.

A bike fit may help address factors that contribute to cycling-related discomfort or overload, but it cannot guarantee injury prevention.

Injury risk is influenced by many factors including training load, recovery, strength, mobility, technique and previous injury history.

The benefit of a physiotherapy-led fit is that these factors can be considered alongside your bike position.

Bike fit appointments are provided by a physiotherapist. Whether you can claim a rebate depends on your individual private health insurance policy and level of cover.

Please check directly with your health insurer before your appointment if claiming is important to you.

Absolutely.

A bike fit isn’t only for serious or competitive cyclists. Establishing a comfortable and sustainable position early can make riding more enjoyable and may help prevent common problems as your riding volume increases.

Absolutely.

Yes.

Experienced cyclists often benefit from a bike fit when changing bikes, increasing training volume, returning from injury or trying to optimise comfort and performance.

Even small changes in position can become significant over long rides or high training volumes.
