Pedal Stroke Analysis
 
The Altheus Pedal Stroke Analysis utilizes software made specifically for cyclists to analyze pedaling efficiency. Cyclists pedal their bike while the program provides instantaneous visual feedback of each pedal stroke. In addition, we provide an objective left/right leg percentage assessment that will give you the feedback needed to learn how to pedal in "circles". We will help to identify "flat" or "dead" spots in the pedal stroke where optimal power is not transferred to the drive train. The Altheus Cycling Assessment utilizing a Pedal Stroke Analysis is an excellent way to take the subjectivity and guesswork out of your cycling. Once the assessment is completed we create a file of your pedal strokes to be saved for future benchmarking.
