Free speed is a game changer in cycling that most overlook. Why? Because it's all about efficiency: better cornering, positioning, and reducing drag. Think about it: every time you brake before a corner, you're wasting kinetic energy you've worked hard to generate. Instead, focus on maintaining flow and minimizing energy loss. In races, this can be the difference between finishing strong or falling behind. Most cyclists overlook the importance of maintaining their bike fit position once they leave the fitter. But guess what? Your position is as crucial as your power output. Imagine increasing your speed just by staying in the right position—no extra effort, just pure efficiency. In this episode we pull the second half of Episode 59 with Sebastian Weber to talk about HOW you ride matters. Time to make you faster and more savvy!
