🚴♂️Changing crank length leads to increased cadence and reduced muscular fatigue over long rides.
🚲Shorter cranks improve cycling position, allowing for a more natural and balanced posture.
⚖️The change in crank length improves balance on the bike and reduces the risk of dropping the hip.
👣Feet positioning closer together with shorter cranks allows for better hip rotation and pelvic movement.
⚡️Shorter cranks do not result in power loss and actually enhance power and speed on the bike.
What impact does changing crank length have on cadence?
—Changing crank length can increase cadence, allowing for a more efficient and faster pedaling rhythm.
Does shorter crank length improve cycling position?
—Yes, shorter cranks can improve cycling position by enabling a more natural and balanced posture on the bike.
Does changing crank length affect balance on the bike?
—Yes, changing crank length can improve balance on the bike, reducing the risk of dropping the hip and promoting better stability.
Can shorter cranks alleviate hip impingement issues?
—Yes, shorter cranks can alleviate hip impingement by allowing for better hip rotation and pelvic movement.
Does changing crank length result in power loss?
—No, changing crank length does not result in power loss and can actually enhance power and speed on the bike.
