RPG Bike Fitting & Aerodynamic Testing
Ride faster, more comfortably — a fit that balances aero, power and comfort.
Summary:
We combine pre-visit video screening, a full face-to-face bike fit and as an add-on service option, can use 3D images to test various equipment setups and position changes to assess aerodynamic changes while managing to get the balance right between power, comfort and aerodynamic efficiency. Each client will walk away with a highly detailed report showing the changes made and how it has affected their position.
What we do:
Pre-visit video analysis: confirm equipment readiness and identify any crank/stem changes needed before the in-person fit.
Biomechanical screen & interview: assess flexibility, torso length, leg length and previous bike issues.
Position geometry: measure hip/knee/ankle/torso angles, reach and stack.
Saddle pressure mapping: match saddle shape to sit-bones and pelvic tilt.
Cleat optimisation: use precision adapters for expanded fore/aft, medial/lateral and rotational options.
Detailed report: annotated photos, measured angles and final settings.
Who it’s for:
Time-trialists, triathletes and road riders chasing marginal gains, comfort, or to solve recurring saddle/pain issues.
Typical in-person session (90–180 mins):
Warm-up, static checks, dynamic pedalling capture, saddle & cleat trials, on-bike validation and debrief.
Optional Aerodynamic Testing (Lab 3D / Nabaflow):
Capture 3D images of up to two position options and two helmet/hydration configurations.
Use Nabaflow to compute CdA differences and projected watt savings.
Duration: +~1 hour. Deliverable: CdA report, 3D visuals and recommendations.
Outdoor Aerodynamic Testing:
Duration: Typically 4–8 hours (half to full day).
Use leading outdoor aero sensors to measure real-world CdA / power relationships across front-end tweaks, bottle placement and helmet choice.
Deliverable: Outdoor aero report with validated position & equipment recommendations. Typical cost range: $1,000–$1,500 AUD depending on permutations.
