Understand bike fitting more precisely. Professionally measure saddle pressure. Optimize rider setup.
This two-day training course in Leipzig provides practical knowledge on professional saddle position analysis, dynamic saddle pressure measurement, and the targeted optimization of comfort, performance, and efficiency on the bike.
