SoI re-arranged my entire living room to try it out. Why did I have to do that you ask? Well, it turns out that in order to get far enough away from my bike to get the full view I had to go about 10 feet away. Or, approximately 1 foot from the wall. In fact, the camera taking this photo was literally up against the wall shooting somewhat blindly.

I also think it gives an athlete an opportunity to quickly share fit details as needed. For example, when I spent some time at the LA Velodrome back in the spring, in talking with renowned bike fitter Jim Manton, he mentioned a funny story where a well known pro triathlete had come in for a fit. About a month later Jim had seen a race photo of the athlete in a news clip from that weekend. Turns out, while re-assembling the bike after travel things got a bit out of whack.


No doubt that issue could be solved a bunch of different ways (like a tape measure). However, one interesting way would be for a friend to simply take 10 seconds to take a video of the athlete after setting up the bike and ensuring the angles are all the same (since it automatically does all that). The angles could have acted as a quick double-check.


Bike fit

Without getting into details of what angles are the best for a rider. i agree that ubersense is a great tool to use for all kind of sport analysis. not only for cycling but also for running, swimming, skating, etc

You mention Retl in your blog. these are just a couple of computer guys who marketeerd their system very well before selling it. In Europe we call that the basic American business model (create, marketeer and sell). try to find some technical detail about the system and you cannot.


i Do think that this setup is a one that can help you with your fit. however there are a couple of notes you need to consider.

> a bike fit is never only based on the solely measurement of angles. It also has to to with body symmetric, history, length differences of body part, differentiation in facial balance, upper end lower body length, type of muscles, pushing technique and changes in some of the parameters during the periodisation of your season.

the other thing that seems to be important in this is time. the longer you sit in a position the better you get an idea of what you can or cannot do. this holds an direct relationship between the upper part.


In order to do a good bikefit that is reproduceable an trusworthy to show you need more that a camera and an app. Underneath i posted a link to an thesis of an mathemattical student. This wil give you an insight of what to do when you want to bike fit propperly.


Let me end this comment by saying that i really believe that the ubersense could be helpfull in many ways. specially for people who did not do anything. But to fit specially you need a specialist. Retl fitters are not one of them as i see it. (i that case you do the same).


This looks very cool, I got the Dartfish Express App a while ago which allows you to manually measure angles. Unlike this app though, it allows you to draw on any video so you can do running or other sports too. Going to add this to my collection straight away!


No doubt. Some of them I was adjusting a bit here and there. I like your descriptions on where exactly to place it, as some of the medical ones are a bit more difficult for the average Joe (like me) to understand.


The red alignment outline is only used to help the user properly align the camera and the bike. During development we found we typically setup the camera too close and cut off our head (well in the video and not actually.) We added to alignment to make setup easier.


Hi,looks like a good App.I have had a bike fit with similar measurements taken when riding the bike.Do you have a head on shot showing your Legs/Feet?I ask,because it showed on of my legs was not in alignment to the other.

Regarding the video side,my IPad does not have a timer,do I need a timer app,if so,which do you recommend?Cheers.


As others have mentioned using stickers on the hip, knee and ankle points and getting the app to recognise these should be the next development. This is what the Specialised BG Fit system is based around.


Secondly, it is not a Retul replacement. Retul is dynamic (collects data while you are pedaling), it is real-time (not based on post-processing of video), it works in three dimensions (not a side view), and it is highly accurate (sub-mm). This app, while a cool and potentially useful tool, is none of these things.


Nice to have someone with authority to shout down those without knowledge. I just did the Retul fitting form my training bike, Crit bike and MTB bike. It is very impressive stuff. Found the (major brand) saddle I use on the crit bike had collapsed on one side, hence my left knee being closer to the top tube. Also found the BG fit settings I had done 18 month prior positioned me a long way back on the bike.


We regret to announce we have put our Android development of Bike Fast Fit on hold. We are a small company with limited development resources and a long list of ideas for improving Bike Fast Fit. Our goal is to build the best bike fitting app. We decided to concentrate on improving the iOS app rather than build an Android version.


I just paid for a Retul fit and can say it looks like this app + the knowledge I learned about cleat position from Retul and you have a bike fit option to help your buddies out. Even amateur clubs where riders cannot easily spring the 250 for the retul fit can be helped and possibly saved from injury.


Just another idea. The user guide should include advising the test rider to use stick on dots like they use at the bike fits to mark each of the joins locations. This will make it easier to measure the angles on the captured video.

Locations were: outside little toe (5th metatarsal), heel outside at same level on the side of the shoe as the metatarsal spot, ankle bone, knee hinge point, hip hinge point, shoulder hinge point, outside of the elbow hinge point, wrist bone outside, 1st knuckle on index finger.


I think many of us with all the heart rate belts, power meters, cadence/speed, GPS, apps, watch, this and that finally we are not well fit on our bikes :-) so decrease performance and increase pain an injuries.


I live overseas and have never had a proper bike fit, nor do I have the option of having one any time soon. I am looking for an app that can get me decently close for my road bike using the redshift switch system to go aero.

There are plenty of bike applications - whether for racing cyclists, city cyclists, gravel or mountain bikers. The portfolio of more than 4000 available applications ranges from navigation and training planner to bike-fitting tools. But which of them really make sense and keep their promises? ISPO.com has compiled the most helpful bike apps for a wide range of applications. And the best: They are for free!


Apps can make cycling easier, more pleasant, safer, more comfortable, cheaper or simply more entertaining. But when looking for the best bike apps in the Google Play Store and Apple Store, the choice is huge. ISPO.com provides an overview of the best free bike apps for Android and iOS.


First Aid IRFC: In the event of a bicycle accident, the Red Cross and Half Moon Association app provides step-by-step instructions on first aid, wound care and emergency numbers. Emergency information for many countries is pre-installed. The app is helpful on the road and informative even without an acute emergency.


Komoot is not just an app, but the most popular route planning and navigation website for outdoor enthusiasts. The huge community is constantly putting together new routes for cycling tours of all kinds - including directions and precise information about the level of difficulty. The app is a great way to get the content prepared on the net onto your bike. But it can also be used self-sufficiently. The app is very accurate and stable, but some functions cost a few Euros.


A navigation app specially designed for the city. The routes are specially optimised for cycling and take into account current danger points and short-term closures. The rule is: The bigger the city, the more extensive the function of the app, but the portfolio is constantly growing.


This advanced application is actually for hikers, but can also be used by cyclists for other purposes. Using a camera and GPS, the software recognizes prominent landscape points such as mountain peaks or lakes and names them in the camera image via augmented reality. This can be very helpful for orientation in the terrain or is simply extremely interesting. In addition, a target point can be selected in the image. The app also shows the best way to get there, also cross-country.


The best app for bike navigation for tourists. As with navigation devices with Falk maps, Falk has equipped maps, routes, points of interest or possible accommodations with lots of additional information. Although the scope offline is not as huge as with Falk's payment products, direct web links to hotel pages are stored, also rail connections are implemented.


With more than 4.5 million routes in over 100 countries worldwide, Bikemap is a large route portal. Users can profit with trails for mountain bike, cross bike, e-bike, racing bike or pedelec. According to user surveys, the app should be better than competitors such as Google Maps. There is also a premium version for 29 euros a year with offline maps and offline navigation as well as support from experts.


Currently the standard app for all cycling enthusiasts. The app records driving and training data, pulse can also be integrated. Strava serves as a database and at the same time as a competition platform, as users can set up so-called KOMs. These are routes for which rankings of the fastest passages of all participating users are created. Personal records can be shared and evaluated via social media.
