Bici Lab is a specialized center focused on biomechanics, posture, and athletic preparation, designed for those seeking innovative solutions to enhance well-being and performance.

Originally created to support amateur cyclists, it has evolved to assist anyone trying to improve posture or alleviate issues such as back pain and muscle tension. This is achieved by combining advanced technology with a multidisciplinary approach.

Equipped with cutting-edge biomedical devices, Bici Lab delivers a unique service, blending technological precision with the expertise of a team that includes biomechanic experts, posturologists, and physiotherapists.

Bici Lab is more than a center; it’s a hub where technology, professionalism, and passion converge to achieve one goal—your wellbeing.

 

Our Core Services:

• Cycling Biomechanics: Personalized analyses to optimize your riding position, prevent discomfort, and improve efficiency.

• Posture and Wellness: Tailored postural assessments and programs, supported by technologies that objectively track progress.

• Athletic Preparation Customized training plans to enhance performance and prevent injuries.

Our journey

Founded in 2011 in Vigevano (PV), Bici Lab began as a comprehensive athlete assessment center. Its areas of expertise include biomechanical analysis, postural evaluation, athletic preparation, and performance testing.
Since 2013, it has become a key partner of Davide Cassani, head coach of the Italian national cycling team, working directly with road and track national teams.

Over the years, Bici Lab has collaborated with several cycling champions, participating in six editions of the Giro d’Italia.

The change

In recent years, the surge in cycling’s popularity has underscored the importance of high-level bike fitting. Bici Lab has completely revamped its analysis methods, transitioning from a 2D camera system to an 8-camera 3D system. This enables a 360° view of movement, with a particular focus on body symmetry.

Instead of merely analysing pedal force, we now study the electrical activity of muscles during . pedalling. This deeper analysis has uncovered previously unnoticed issues, enabling more comprehensive solutions.

How our technologies have been used

Our lab features cutting-edge tools such as the 3D motion analysis system SMART-DX EVO, the surface electromyography device FREEEMG, and the inertial sensor BAIOBIT. These are essential for both cyclist postural assessments and pedalling analysis.

The BAIOBIT sensor evaluates cervical and trunk mobility. For triathletes and runners, we also offer gait analysis to identify movement imperfections.

The combination of 3D video analysis and EMG assessment is the core of our pedalling analysis, ensuring perfect balance and posture on the bike.

I chose BTS for the unparalleled precision of its devices. Nothing else on the market offers such detailed analysis. Additionally, I was pleasantly surprised to find a company always available and staffed by professionals who, over time, have become like friends.
