The bloggers from the world of cycling from the The Wriders's Club The jury scrutinised and evaluated a selection of 20 books. The winner in the Service, Technology and Sport category was the book "Bikefitting - correctly adjusted from head to toe" by Daniel Hechenblaikner, published by Delius Klasing Verlag.
About the book: The author is a professional bike fitter and physiotherapist. In his guide for cyclists, he sheds light on how cyclists can harmonise their anatomical needs and sporting goals with their bike geometry. After all, the optimum riding position on a road or mountain bike is essential to ensure the best possible power transfer to the pedals. However, the correct posture is very individual. This book shows in an understandable and practical way how you can optimise your bike, from the saddle to the pedals to the gears, and adapt it to your own needs. All aspects from aerodynamics and the physical demands of the rider to biomechanical principles are examined and explained in detail.
The book is published by Delius Klasing Verlag and costs 24.90 euros. >> Click here to go to the online shop
