Whether you ride a mountain bike, or a road bike, or are a loyal triathlon enthusiast, I believe that riders want to be able to ride comfortably. Regardless of whether the self-locking pedal system is used or not, has everyone encountered foot numbness or even foot pain? In fact, numbness in the hands and feet is a common problem in cycling, and there are many reasons for discomfort in the hands and feet. However, at least half of the riders will mention numbness in hands, numbness in feet, and pain in feet when describing riding discomfort, or symptoms such as leg weakness. Some of these problems are related to the settings of the riding vehicle, such as Fitting, and some are related to the body. important support When the human body rides a bicycle, there are three contact points: the handlebar, the seat cushion, and the pedals. These three contact points carry all the weight of the body. Any discomfort in any of them will cause discomfort when we ride. Among them, the feet It is also an important part of our power output, and the discomfort of the feet will bring a certain degree of burden to the body. Single force point Riders who do not use the self-locking click system usually suffer from foot pain and numbness because the force point on the pedal is not suitable, or the force point on the pedal is too single. However, the soles of the sports shoes we wear every day are generally soft, with good shock filtering effect and concentrated and single stress points, which cannot disperse the pressure on the soles of the feet like bicycle special shoes and insoles. For riders who do not use the self-locking system, players recommend using it to reduce the chance of foot pain and numbness. different foot shapes According to the foot shape, it can be roughly divided into five shapes: Egyptian, Greek, Roman, German, and Celtic. These five-foot shapes will also correspond to five different lock shoe last models, and different brands have different lasts The shape of the head is also different. For example, the shape of the last of BONT is suitable for the flat foot of the forefoot, Sidi is suitable for the Greek foot, and the last of Fizik or Giro is more pointed. A last that is not suitable for the foot shape will cause local compression, which will lead to local pain. proper lock shoes In the face of riders who experience foot numbness and foot pain when using the self-locking pedaling system, they can only find and solve the problem through a series of elimination methods. Among the riders with foot numbness symptoms, more than 80% of them have the wrong lock shoe size. There is a great chance that the lock shoes are too large. If the feet are loose and shake in the shoes, it will cause an impact phenomenon, and slight high-frequency impact will cause It leads to numbness, which leads to numbness in the feet; foot pain is basically caused by inappropriate shoe size, inappropriate last and shoe shape wrapping and compressing the circulatory system and nervous system of the foot. What kind of situation is called a suitable lock shoe? That is, when all the locking systems are loosened, there is no extra front and rear loose space for the feet in the shoes, and there will be no oppressive feeling in specific parts when the shoes are fastened. As for the numbness of the feet, it may be caused by improper adjustment of the cleats or improper arch support, resulting in deformation of the soles of the feet or unsmooth exertion of force.
Cycling has the reputation of golden transportation, which saves time and effort, and is cost-effective. Cycling at 19 km/h consumes 350-550 calories. Persisting in cycling can improve the heart and lungs and achieve the goal of losing weight. Why not learn about the benefits of cycling? maintenance of musculoskeletal The bones are well stimulated when riding, which promotes the precipitation of calcium in the bones, thereby strengthening the bones. Bone not only plays a supporting role but also has the hematopoietic function of storing calcium. Exercise the gastrocnemius, gluteal and quadriceps muscles, thereby improving muscle strength, preventing bone damage, and maintaining bone joints, slowing down joint degeneration and aging. Must increase basal metabolism During the cycling process, the basal metabolism can be accelerated, and the speed of burning calories and fat will be accelerated, so as to achieve the purpose of losing weight, and in addition, it can better shape the body. Can improve the heart and lungs The heartbeat speed during cycling can be changed according to the riding speed and terrain, which is equivalent to the combination of aerobic exercise and anaerobic exercise. Long-term heartbeat can increase the contractility of the myocardium and improve the heart and lungs. Maintain blood vessels Cycling can speed up the heart rate and promote blood circulation throughout the body. During the rapid flow of blood, it can rub the walls of blood vessels well, relax smooth muscles, help dilate blood vessels, and eliminate carbon monoxide, thereby maintaining cardiovascular health and improving vascular function. Riding is good,but you need to pay attention to these four points: 1.Mind your seat choice Many people like a wide and heavy seat and feel that it is more comfortable to sit on, not to say that whether the sitting posture is comfortable or not depends on its shape. In addition, you need to pay attention to the installation height and position of the seat. When riding, the seat cannot maintain its posture for a long time when it is too high, and the friction area will be enlarged; the seat that is too low will increase the pressure of the contact area, which will also cause physical discomfort. 2.Shunting has corresponding special attention Sit upright on the saddle, the handlebars and the frame sills are in a straight line, put the heels on the pedals, keep the legs straight in the middle, and ensure that the knees or feet cannot be bent too much when riding so that it will be better exert force. 3.alternate pose It is not allowed to maintain the same body position for a long time, and it is not allowed to ride for a long time. It is necessary to follow the gradual standard and combine various sports methods. Do not perform surprise riding in a short period of time, and do not ride for a long time on relatively poor roads. 4.Warm up before riding Usually, ride 2-3 times a week, and there should be no fatigue when riding the next day. If you want to ride for a long time, you should prepare for activities in advance, and do some relaxing activities after riding. Chronic pain, limb joints, and waist and neck discomfort often occur after cycling, and a professional physician should be sought for treatment as soon as possible.
There are three types of cycling, the first is leisure riding, the second is training with a goal, and the third is competition. The purpose of all kinds of cycling is very different. The first type of leisure riding is the simplest, you can ride alone, ride a bike, and wander around: you can also go with friends and friends, don't ask why and where you go, you can stop and stop, you can do all kinds of corruption, you can Taking pictures in various poses, various facial expressions, scissors hands, crossed legs, nonsense. . . Hip-hop is a lot of fun. . . Don’t ask me why I'm happy. The second type of zipper training is generally for riders who are more passionate and capable. In order to complete: such as 200 kilometers, 300 kilometers, and 400 kilometers to prove yourself, the road is not for the scenery, but for the goal all the way forward. Under the sweat and scorching sun, don’t give up until you reach your goal. The third type of competition is a challenge to prove the limit of one’s ability, just to show one’s best side, being able to play with many masters is extraordinary in itself, even being the last one is a rare experience. Let me share with you some small experiences, which may be helpful for you to ride a bicycle: For those who do not wear locked shoes, some small details are as follows. 1.Please pay attention to shoe laces, this is the most easily overlooked one—-shoe laces float freely outside, and sometimes hooking the chain plate, there are unexpected troubles, the correct way is to wear shoes The strap should be pinned inside the two or three layers where the laces intersect so that there is no chance to hang on the chainset. 2.Be careful with the brakes — use the front brake a lot. 3.Sun protection arm sleeves, leg sleeves, and sun protection are eternal topics, and it is a dilemma for everyone. 4.Drinking water and sweating while cycling is nothing more than normal. Drinking water is essential, but there is something to be said, a lot of salt is taken away by sweating, so drinking water alone is obviously not enough. It is best to put a pack of rehydration salts into the kettle, which is economical and cost-effective, and the effect is very good. 5.When you are free, consciously anticipate emergencies, make a plan yourself, and be prepared, such as broken tires, brake failures, machine failures, etc. This will prevent many accidents from being at a loss and not knowing how to deal with them, and losing the best remedy at good timing. 6.This may be one of the most neglected by most people, but it is the most important two links: do warm-up before cycling — also called warm-up, and cool down after cycling — also called relaxation. In fact, these two links determine how long and how long your sports career will be and avoid injuries. Many people use slow cycling instead of warming up.This is very bad behavior because the muscles used by cycling are only part of the muscles of the calf and calf — and the warm-up exercise is the whole body. It is a great misunderstanding to use slow cycling to wake up the exercise muscles. This bad habit is easy to get entangled in the excessive exercise of some muscles, leading to numbness and cramps. The warm-up is divided into three stages: The first stage is to move the muscles, starting with small arms, thighs, and legs. At this time, gymnastics in elementary and middle schools are the best example. The second stage is to increase the activity, swing the legs, move the arms more substantially, swing the arms from side to side and touch the opposite toes. The third stage is more extensive movement, rapid leg raising and stepping, hot dance movements, and dynamic movements. The purpose is to start the body with low-intensity activities until the body adapts to a certain intensity of exercise, until it adapts to a certain intensity of exercise, so that muscle toughness and strength can be maximized while cycling and unnecessary accidental injuries can be avoided. So what does the back cover do after riding the bike? Is it as simple as taking a shower and eating after stopping? Obviously not, it is still necessary to cool down first, stop exercising suddenly, and enter the cold state directly, the impact on the body is not inferior to cycling without warming up. How to cool down? Just do the warm-up trilogy in reverse.
At present, the braking system of road bikes is divided into two categories, disc brakes and rim brakes (rim brakes are also called v brakes). Earlier, road bikes generally used rim brakes, while disc brakes were mostly used on mountain bikes. With the gradual emergence of disc brakes in the Tour de France, more and more users using disc brakes on the market have also followed. The braking of the rim brake mainly depends on the friction braking between the brake block and the brake edge, while the disc brake uses friction braking between the pad and the disc. Compared with the disc brake, the weight of the rim brake road bike will be lighter. Due to structural problems, disc brakes are heavier than rim brakes. Although disc brakes are heavier, they sacrifice weight for better braking power and heat dissipation. For carbon fiber wheelsets, disc brakes are more friendly to the wheelset, and there will be no frame-burning phenomenon of rim brakes when going downhill for a long distance, which greatly improves the service life of the wheelset (the phenomenon of burning frames is mainly due to long-term driving Slope, the brake block and the brake edge have been rubbed for a long time, and the heat dissipation is not timely and the frame is burnt) On rainy days, the braking force of the rim brake will drop to a certain extent, and the advantage of the disc brake will be more obvious when going downhill for a long distance, so there is no need to worry about the phenomenon of burning the frame. Disc brakes are better than rim brakes in terms of the braking cube and stopping distance. Secondly, in terms of price, the price of rim brakes at the same level will be cheaper than disc brakes. The working principle of the rim brake caliper is mainly that the brake handle is connected to the brake line, and the brake line pulls the caliper so that the brake block on the caliper and the brake edge on the wheelset friction brake. Disc brakes can be divided into two types, mechanical disc brakes, and oil brakes.The working principle of the wire pull disc brake is similar to that of the rim brake caliper, but the oil brake is different. When the brake handle is pressed, the oil in the oil pipe is pushed to push the piston, so that the pad and the disc rub. Note: Because rim brakes and mechanical disc brakes are pulled by wires to brake, the material of the wire tube and the way of wiring will have a certain impact on the feel of the brakes, so the oil disc does not need to consider such a problem. Disc brakes and rim brakes for road bikes have their own advantages and disadvantages. The real choice depends on personal preferences and needs. The first is the braking force. For most situations, the braking force of the rim brake is absolutely sufficient, otherwise, it is impossible to be active in the Grand Tour for so many years. However, there is a shortcoming of the rim brake, that is, the braking force is insufficient when the carbon blade is used and the brake pads are not very good, and the braking force will also be attenuated on rainy days. The risk of burning the frame, but with the maturity of carbon knife technology, this situation is rare. In contrast, disc brakes will have more stopping power than rim brakes on rainy days and are equipped with carbon blades. This is a major advantage of disc brakes. Besides the weight, if you are pursuing ultra-lightweight, it is recommended to use rim brakes. After all, although the current disc brake technology is relatively mature, the weight is still a big problem. It may be easy to assemble a tank. Rim brakes will weigh a lot less in comparison, which is one benefit of rim brakes. Disc brakes have a big advantage in cable routing. Due to the special structure, the rim brake frame generally cannot completely hide the wiring. No matter how you hide it, there will always be a part of the line leaking out (of course, the inability to run all the way will also cause most rim brakes to feel good). Those who pursue beauty and simplicity, they can give up. Then you can refer to this Full internal carbon Routing road bike frame: Trifox X12 frame. Finally, let’s talk about maintenance. The braking logic of the rim brake is relatively simple, especially since the brake pads are easier to replace and relatively easier to maintain, and there will be no messy problems such as rubbing against the rim and making abnormal noises. The maintenance of disc brakes is more troublesome. The oil disc needs to be refilled and exhausted when disassembling and assembling. Moreover, since the brake pads of pads are approximately equal to the brake pads of the rim brakes, the clearance is small, and very fine adjustments are required when installing them for the first time. otherwise, it is easy to rub the disc, and generally, it takes a lot of time to adjust the disc brake. Rim brakes are more advantageous in terms of maintenance.
1.Choose a hardtail frame First, let me briefly talk about the importance of frame size. The frame size must fit your body. If it is too large or too small, it will affect your riding posture, causing you to ride harder than others, and may cause sports injuries for a long time. However, this is not absolute. For example, if you often go up and downhill, then the frame size should be smaller. If you only use it for flat road riding, then it does not matter if the frame size is slightly larger. The frame material is of course titanium alloy or carbon fiber is the best. 2.The front fork is a high-tech component of mountain bikes. Mountain bikes with hard front forks are rare, and they are basically front forks with shock absorbers. Spring Forks: The lowest range forks with no damping. Features: cheap, the most common. Resistance fork: The resistance fork is used as the medium without damping. Features: More than the above, but more than the bottom, but the resistance fork will age after about three years and needs to be replaced. Oil spring fork: the spring is used as the rebound medium, and the oil is used as the damping. Features: The heaviest, but the strongest. The spring is relatively smooth to use and responds sensitively to small vibrations. Generally, the shock absorber oil is changed every six months, and the fork is removed to change the oil. Oil-air fork: Air is used as the rebound medium, and shock oil is used as the damper. Features: Lighter than the oil spring fork, but the firmness is reduced. If you pump up the gas every six months, the car dealer will provide a special pump for free, and you can buy it separately. The advantage of using air as the medium is that it is lighter in weight and can protect the rider’s wrist during high-speed off-road, but it is not very sensitive to small vibrations. 3.The braking system includes brakes, brake levers, and brake lines. There are two kinds of brakes for mountain bikes: V brakes and disc brakes, while suspension brakes for ordinary bicycles are not common. V brake: The force is very strong, because it is braked by the friction rim, so the rim must be adjusted in place, and it is not easy to deform. Disc brakes: Compared with V brakes, it is less likely to lock the tires. When driving at high speed, locking is very dangerous and will cause sideslips and rollovers. There are two types of disc brakes: hydraulic disc brakes and mechanical disc brakes. Hydraulic disc brakes rely on oil to press the brake pads to obtain huge braking force. Wire-pull disc brakes rely on the power of your fingers to brake. Now, V brakes have been phased out one after another. Disc brakes are better in terms of aesthetics and practicality. The only trouble is that sometimes you need to adjust the brakes to make the gap between the pads. V brakes are more dangerous than disc brakes when riding downhill on rainy days, and are more prone to brake failure. For long-distance riding, one or two pairs of pads must be prepared, especially in mountainous areas. As for the oil pressure and machinery, it depends on your own choice, and the machinery is better maintained. If the oil brake is broken on the road, most cities cannot repair it, especially in remote areas, you can only either express a new one or replace it with a mechanical one. 4.The transmission system includes a crankshaft, a central shaft, a chain, and a flywheel. Tooth plate: also called tooth plate. Most of them have 3 gears, and some people change them to two gears in pursuit of lightweight. Central axis: There are three types of integrated central axis, plum blossom hole central axis, and square hole central axis. Chain: This is a consumable item, and the chain is often broken. A good chain drive is flexible and will not wear out after long-term use. Flywheel: There are 7-speed 21-speed, 8-speed 24-speed, 9-speed 27-speed, 10-speed 30-speed, and 11-speed 33-speed. 5.The speed change system includes a shift handle, a front derailleur, a rear derailleur, and a speed change cable. 6.Wheels include rims, steel wires, front and rear axles, outer tires, and inner tubes. Rims: Double-layer rims should be used for mountain bikes. Because the double-layer ring is stronger than the single-layer ring, it can better withstand the test of the performance of the bicycle on harsh terrain. Steel wires (spokes): There are two types, one is common, with a circular cross-section; the other is flat (wind resistance strips), which can reduce frontal wind resistance. Axle: also known as flower drum. Friends who use disc brakes should choose disc brake shafts because the disc brake pads are fixed on the disc brake shafts; friends who use V brakes can use ordinary shafts. If you want to upgrade to disc brakes in the future, you can install disc brake shafts first. Tire: very important, because it directly affects the rider’s handling of the car on a specific road. Different tread patterns adapt to different road surfaces. The flatter the tread, the less resistance, the faster the speed, and the stronger the friction on flat ground. Skinny tires are suitable for flat concrete roads in the city. The more convex the tread, the greater the resistance, the slower the speed, and the stronger the friction on the mountain. if you want to check more bike knowledge, you can pay attention to our official web.
Even though aerodynamics is widely accepted these days, most of us cyclists still wish our bikes were lighter. Probably from the earliest days of bicycles, cyclists have been trying to make their bikes lighter. We’re sure Octave Lapize, the first rider to climb Mount Duttmare in the 1910 Tour de France, would have liked his bike to be lighter. No matter what era, if you’re riding a bike, you have to push the weight of the equipment with your own effort. As a result, cyclists tend to think about taking weight off their equipment and being happy to lose even a little weight. In recent years, with the improvement of academic understanding and research knowledge of aerodynamics, and being accepted by the majority of cyclists, aerodynamics is regarded as the kingly way to ride faster. Studies have shown that, except on the steepest climbs, aero bikes are generally faster than lightweight-oriented bikes. It’s crucial for racers, but for most of us cycling enthusiasts, saving weight is still a welcome act. Below we’ve outlined some weight-saving upgrades and tips to help keep your bike’s weight down. Handlebar While the effect may sound insignificant, you can actually save up to 80 grams by swapping out your aluminum handlebars for carbon fiber ones. You can go a step further and see them short. I recommend the Trifox bike Carbon Riser Handlebar RHB300, which weighs in at 187g and is very reasonably priced. Tires and Tubes If your bike comes standard with heavier, cheaper tires, upgrading them can provide some solid weight savings and improve ride quality. This inexpensive upgrade also comes with the all-important problem of generally reduced puncture resistance. But for many lighter-weight cyclists, it’s a risk worth taking. Wheels To keep costs at a minimum, manufacturers often equip their entry-level to mid-level bikes with more durable components. Especially when it comes to wheelsets. Low-end and mid-end vehicles are usually equipped with aluminum alloy wheels, which are usually heavier than carbon fiber wheels. If your wheels are heavy, upgrading them could save a lot of weight. Depending on the wheelset you choose, it may even be possible to save up to half a kilo. spare parts Another simple weight-saving measure is the option to replace the saddle, seat posts, and pedals that come with the bike with lightweight alloy or carbon fiber versions. These modifications are also less expensive than replacing your wheels and drivetrain. If you’re going to ride for a long time, not just lightweight for climbing, Trifox bike has a lighter carbon bow saddle option. The trifox bike CS100 saddle, which weighs only 106 grams, has also attracted attention for its perfect combination of comfort and weight. Another great way to modify is to invest in a lightweight seat post. The SLS21 Bike Seatpost is my personal favorite, ditch unnecessary items like a second bottle cage; swap out all-stock steel bolts and nuts for titanium versions, and upgrade to lightweight quick releases or thru axles pole. When every moment counts, you can also consider sawing off the overly long front fork steerer tube and seat tube. Sawing off the excess can actually save a lot of weight. Tips for light-weighting without spending money If you’ve already saved a lot of weight with component upgrades, trimming the excess length of the cable and bar tape can save a few more grams. If your bike has external cable routing, optimizing the cable routing will also help improve aerodynamics at the front of the bike. The brake and transmission cables of the whole car are usually relatively long when they leave the factory. Cutting them as short as possible can save considerable weight. When operating, please note that if it is too short, it will affect the braking and shifting performance. Road handlebar tape and handlebar plugs also save weight. Inflatable handlebar plugs are much heavier than simple plastic ones, and I like to keep a pair of lightweight handlebar plugs on hand so I can attach them to a new bike no matter what bar strap I’m using. Thicker silicone bar tapes are usually heavier, thinner cork tapes are usually the lightest, and you can save on tape if you tie the bar tape as tight as possible. As controversial as it may seem, toss your valve caps and locknuts in the trash, save some weight, and if your valves are going to rattle against your rims, just secure them with some duct tape. You can also swap out the steel screws for bottle cage mounts, headset lid mounts, and other non-fasteners for lightweight alloy screws for even more weight savings.
Anyone who loves cycling will know that bicycles are mainly divided into four categories: The first category is civilian vehicles, which are the most common transportation vehicles; The second category is mountain bikes with thick tires; The third category is called climbing car; Another category is road bikes. The road car used in the competition, we usually call it “racing car”. Tire Road 700C is equivalent to 28 inches, and mountain bikes have a wheel diameter of 26 inches; mountain bike tires are usually above 1.9″ (1.5″ may be used for special tracks), while road bike tires are mostly around 20mm wide. Handlebar controls In order to ride on rugged mountain roads and pursue control, the mountain bike uses a wider handlebar, while the road pursues speed and reduces wind resistance, so the handlebar is narrower. Frame On bumpy roads in the mountains, the consideration is the combination of lightweight and hard work, while the focus of road considerations is pedaling rigidity and lightweight. Road bikes are usually slender (and aerodynamically designed frames are thicker in recent years), while mountain bikes are stronger. The frame angle of the mountain bike is very particular, and the angle of the road bike is similar. Mountain bikes have thicker axles, while road bikes have more delicate axles. At present, with the application of manufacturing technology and high-tech materials, it is difficult to find any similarities between the two frames except for the basic structure. Brake Mountain bikes require powerful, powerful braking, and all-weather braking systems. The earliest mountain bikes used a suspension brake system and the V-shaped brakes that appeared later provided better braking performance. The best braking system now is the disc brakes, introduced by motorcycles. In addition to braking power, the most important thing about road bikes is lightweight. Front fork The front fork of the mountain bike is an important part of the mountain bike. It has high technological content, a combination of performance and comfort, rigidity and lightweight, while the front fork of the road bike is just a part related to the frame. Weight Weight is very important for mountains and roads. During competitions, mountain bikes can reach 12.5kg, while the maximum limit for roads is 10.5kg. The heavier the car, the more energy you consume, virtually increasing your excess consumption. Precautions The appearance of the mountain is complicated, and there is no road. It feels simple and smooth. Of course, some of them cannot be seen by their appearance. What needs to be seen is the overall effect of the car, especially during the riding process. Mountain bikes feel relatively stable, and comfortable, and have very good maneuverability and braking; all road bikes are designed to emphasize speed because the narrow tire width has high requirements on the road surface, and wet and slippery roads are easy to slip and have poor flexibility.
Breaking the wind is the necessary process for cyclists to lead to victory!If you do not fully prepare, it will consume your stamina bit by bit and become the biggest enemy on the field.Even if they have excellent aerodynamic bicycles and ultra-low wind resistance cycling equipment, riders can only get a certain amount of help on the field. It does not mean that they can get the first opportunity in the leading group, and there is no guarantee that they can stand in the awards the stage accepts cheers because the output power is determined by physical fitness. If riders have good equipment and attitude, they can play an important role in the key to victory.For advanced riders who are looking for speed and fighting every second, you must know the 10 tips for creating low-drag riding. The following are the bike parts, personal parts, and body parts, respectively, and explain in order the ways in which road bikes can achieve low-resistance riding settings.Bike parts selection1. WheelsIn principle, a rim height of 35mm or more can produce a wind-breaking effect. Although the higher the rim, the better the wind-cutting effect, if it encounters a crosswind, it will become difficult to control. Considering the front wheel, it is recommended to use 50mm. For the high-frame wheels, the rear wheels have no handling problems and the overall center of gravity is also on the rear wheels, so wheels with higher rims can be used.The part that can exert the maximum aerodynamic performance is the wheelset. The picture above is an AERO wheelset of Trifox. There are 45mm, 50mm, and 60mm for your choice.2. HandlebarIn addition to the appearance of the body to minimize the wind resistance area and make the whole more streamlined, some bike handles use a hidden wiring design, which hides the wiring inside the handlebar. Not only does the car become more concise, but it can also more or less Reduce wind resistance.3. TiresTires that seem to have nothing to do with low wind resistance, in fact, the tread pattern and width will also affect the wind resistance coefficient. It is recommended to choose a smooth and flat tread pattern to minimize the wind resistance friction coefficient, and the width of the tire should be echoed with the wheelset to avoid Choosing wider tires to produce greater wind resistance.Although there is no so-called aerodynamic tire, choosing a bald tire and a suitable width can help.Personal parts selection1. Low wind resistance helmetIt is the most straightforward way to buy a road helmet with low wind resistance. Its appearance is similar to that of a timing helmet. As the rider may face downwards in the final sprint, there is no drop-shaped tail end design. Some brands of road bike helmets are sold separately with caps. By covering the vents to reduce wind resistance, some ventilation will be sacrificed. If your budget is limited, you can add a smooth cap to your existing helmets, which is economical and affordable.2. Shoe coversThere are usually Velcro or laces on the surface of general car shoes. In order to reduce wind resistance, it is more economical to wear shoe covers directly. On the other hand, many shoes on the market pay attention to low wind resistance design, through surface treatment or the whole piece of smooth design, making the whole pair of shoes more streamlined.Wearing shoe covers directly is a more economical way, and the laces and Velcro are not exposed.3. One-piece cycling suitCompared with the separate styles of the upper body cycling jersey and cycling pants, the one-piece cycling underwear is more streamlined, and the seam point is located on the lee side of the front of the jersey. In addition, the appropriate size and tailored tailoring design make the whole set the cycling clothes attached to the body, but the disadvantage of the one-piece cycling suit is that the ventilation effect is not ideal.Body part selection1. Cycling postureThe wind resistance area of the human body is much larger than that of a bicycle. If you want to reduce wind resistance, you can change the cycling posture to create a better low wind resistance effect. Riders who are very particular will perform fitting according to their needs, usually, by adjusting the saddle forward and lowering the handlebar height, The body seems to shrink into a ball, but this posture will not be very comfortable, and the body will easily feel tired.Many riders think that holding the lower handlebar can reduce the wind resistance more than holding the upper handlebar, but in fact, the cycling posture is not as low as possible, but the more level the better, so it is recommended to hold the upper handlebar with both hands. In the horizontal state, the helmet and the back are in a straight line, and the pedaling posture is maintained in a vertical state.2. Shave leg hairDifferent people have different opinions on the effect of shaving leg hair. Some riders have the habit of making the body surface smoother, but after all, leg hair is a part of human skin and has a warming effect. If you really want to shave leg hair, it is usually best. There is such a habit, try not to do it before the game, otherwise, it may cause skin allergies or infections.3. Reduce excess body weightIf you accidentally get too much luck or your BMI exceeds the standard range during the New Year holiday, it is recommended to find a normal way to reduce weight. An average weight loss of 0.5kg per week is more appropriate. It can reduce overall weight on the one hand, and reduce weight on the other. The windward area can also have little effect on reducing wind resistance.4. Reduce wind resistance through wheelsWhen riding, the body will divert the wind resistance to both sides. When the airflow converges again in the neutral position, a so-called low-pressure zone will be generated. There is no wind resistance in the area. If the team is moving through the division of labor and cooperation, it will not only It also achieves the effect of reducing wind resistance and also saves energy.
In today's life, many bicycles, especially mountain bikes, have an obvious groove on the saddle.As for why this design is used, many people don't know why, and many experienced cyclists have different unique opinions.In fact, leaving a hole in the saddle makes this design more humane. The earliest bicycle saddles were designed based on saddles, and this design is still in use today.1. Cost savingThe hollow design in the middle of the bicycle saddle is much more complicated than the integrated design in the production process.Some people think that it is cost saving. In fact, this is impossible. At most, it can only save some materials. However, the cost of craftsmanship and manpower far exceeds the cost of materials.2. Reduce weightSince the material of the saddle is reduced, the weight of the saddle will inevitably be reduced.For cyclists, especially for races, a little weight on the bike is very important. Although it looks small, it reduces the streamlined wind resistance of riding, which can better save people's physical strength and is suitable for long-term riding.3. Relieve stressPeople who often ride bicycles will definitely feel this way. After a long period of riding, the hip will feel the pain of tearing.In fact, it is caused by the force between the sides of a person's hips (sit bones) and the saddle during riding. There are many nerves and blood vessels in the human sciatic bone. The hollow design is mainly to solve the pressure on the blood vessels and nerves in this area, so as to relax our feeling of pressure and discomfort when cycling, and make cycling more healthy!4. VentilationAfter cycling for a long time, there will be a lot of heat in the position of the buttocks, which will produce a lot of sweat. This design plays a role in ventilation and heat dissipation to a large extent, so it is very necessary for the bicycle saddle to be breathable.5. Beautiful and generousWith the development of science and technology, according to people's pursuit of life, the novelty of models makes it easier to attract consumers and promote product sales.Just like many people buy a bike, in addition to performance and price, one thing that cannot be ignored is that its appearance is enough to attract them.Nowadays there are too many sub-healthy people. It is good to buy a bicycle and start cycling. It is environmentally friendly and can also exercise~ Don't be so lazy in life. Be sure don't eat too much and move your legs often!Click Here to buy Trifox Carbon Fiber Bike saddle, suitable for up and down lock or left and right lock seat posts, such as the seat post of trifox full carbon fiber road bike X16.
