🧭 START HERE - How This Community Works 👋
Welcome to the free community of The Bike Fit Academy. This space exists to support proper, thoughtful discussion around Bike Fit, the kind of conversations that are hard to have in comment sections on social media. Here you can: - Discuss Bike Fit topics with other Cyclists, Triathletes and Bike Fitters - Share photos and videos of riding positions for community discussion - Get advice around specific comfort issues. - Learn how to observe, analyse, and talk about position more clearly - Ask questions and explore why certain setups work, or don’t This community is about understanding Bike Fit and supporting each other through shared discussion and experiences. If you’re dealing with aches, pain, or discomfort on the bike, you’re not alone. This space exists for like-minded riders to share experiences, compare notes, and learn from each other through discussion. We (Professional Bike Fitters at UK Bike Fit) will occasionally contribute to discussions, share concepts, and run structured Q&A sessions. Most of the free value here comes from thoughtful peer discussion and explaining your reasoning. If you ask good questions, describe what you’re seeing, and stay curious, you’ll get far more out of this space than the comments section of Social Media, and help others do the same.

Rocker plates
Hi everyone, I (70 yrs young now) ride around 5–6 hours per week on a Kickr Bike, mainly following a structured training plan on Rouvy. Outdoors I usually do fun rides between 30 and 100 km, and after a professional bike fit (IBFI-certified studio), I have no real comfort issues there. My indoor setup is adjusted to match my gravel bike, but after about an hour of training, I start to feel some discomfort—mostly in my hands. To help reduce the effects of static positioning, I’ve just ordered a rocker plate (still waiting for it to arrive). Has anyone here used a rocker plate, and if so, what’s been your experience? Did it make a noticeable difference in comfort or realism during longer indoor sessions?
Do I need new cleats?
New shoes with new cleats fitted by Dan in July. From my ride yesterday I’ve now got significant rubbing on both crank arms. I’ve attached videos to show how much internal rotation there is and a photo of the cleats. Thanks in advance for your help.
