Where can I find information on proper form and position on the bike?
Fitting is not an exact science. It will ultimately come down to months/years of trail and error to decide what is best for you, your events, and your style of riding.
There are several ways start:
- Any local bike shop can help you with a basic fit (15 minutes) to a professional fit (2 hours) with prices varying accordingly. Only go for the expensive 2hr fit when you have been doing this a while and you are looking to fine-tune your fit.
- You can get a trainer and video yourself and compare that to photos/videos on the web.
- Ask for help at your local track (trackies are generally a friendly bunch).
If given the option, go with a person/fitter who is a trackie or is at least familiar with track racing. Track races generally vary from a few seconds to 20-30 minutes. So, a bike fit that makes you comfortable for a 4hr road right may not be optimal.
Also, cadences are higher on the track, so being able to spin (not mash) is preferred.
