A high grade bike equipments is of great importance for race,For example with a high grade carbon frame ,high grade,light weight ,durable carbon wheelset 700c road .A comfortable riding experience can increase the joy of the mood, thereby increasing the speed and improving the efficiency of the race. Following we will introduce 8 tips of riding skills
1,Adjusting the position of the saddle ,having the seat up slightly prevents you from sliding to the front and ensures that the body receives the necessary support. If you note that the saddle is down, you may need to lower the saddle a little bit and you'll also feel some relief in your hands, neck and back.
2, Lift your head, sink your shoulders, bend your elbows, release your hands: Lifting your head too high will put all the pressure on your hands, neck, arms and shoulders, causing unnecessary pain and making it difficult to control the bike. It's natural to look up where you want to go while cycling, so it's even more important to relax the rest of your body. Relaxing allows the bike to handle rocks or wind on the road normally.
3.Shift gears in advance before climbing, and let the chain and sprocket bear the load: It is normal for the transmission system to skip teeth, rub or fail to change gears when it is under heavy load.
4.Ride slowly means ride fast: If you want to improve your riding level, do a field test or let a professional person help you measure lactate threshold power and heart rate, and strengthen it through training. Training in the easy zone below lactate threshold can lead to faster long-distance runs or rides, as the case may be.
5.Change the position of your hands on the handlebars every few minutes, hold down the handlebars, change your hands, and put your hands on the handlebars to exercise force: this exercise allows your muscles and nerves to adapt and release power when there is wind or climbing .
6.Keep the soles of your feet level on the pedals: Some people think that when pedaling, the heels should be down, and some people think that the toes should be facing the sky. Let's use a couple of analogies, look at the linkage of an old steam engine, and then think of your foot as the linkage, staying level the entire time the wheel turns. Another way is to compare the horseman, who rides with the heel down and the forefoot in the stirrup. In my opinion, toe down is absolutely not acceptable. In the next two tips, you'll find out why.
7.Focus on the stage of pushing down during the rotation of the pedals, because you can exert the greatest force at this time, and some people say that you should pay special attention to the movements when you pass the dead point, hoping to strengthen the overall pedaling force by strengthening the force at the dead point, but They spend a lot of time lifting the pedals up, paying special attention to strengthening the weak points in the process, and forget to pedal down.
8.Pedaling in advance: This means that you should start pushing forward before the pedal reaches the highest point. Keep your feet as level as possible, with your toes slightly lifted and your heels sinking. Think of the pedaling circle as a clock face, which expands your range from a two-hour area to a three-hour area. On the other foot, start at 10 o'clock, not 1 o'clock. If the toes are down, it will be difficult to start pedaling before the pedals reach 12 o'clock. (Note: This should take clockwise stepping as an example)
