Lance's First Biomechanical Analysis - 1993
These days, biomechanical analysis of a rider’s pedal stroke is available for pros and amateurs in performance centers and even bike shops. But back in the early 1990s, the only analysis available for cyclists was through the eyes of experienced coaches and team directors. Watching riders from the team car or the infield of a velodrome was the best way to tell if a young rider had a smooth pedal stroke, and once riders were older, it was assumed they naturally settled into the most efficient stroke for their bodies.
