Welcome back to another year of the Cycling Demystified Podcast!

We are kicking off 2026 with an episode we recorded at the end of 2025, reflecting on a particular topic we have seen and learned more about... Hypermobility and how this affects your bike riding.

If you're not aware of your 'superpower' this could be the underlying cause of a myriad of cycling discomforts:

- Saddle sores

- Knee pain

- Lower back discomfort

- Numb hands

- Aching shoulders

Listen on to find out if you have hypermobility through any of your joints, what you can be thinking about when it comes to using your hypermobility for a positive experiencing in cycling and some case studies of some the hypermobile riders we have helped in 2025.

Ep 82: Cracking The Code On Hypermobility + Bike Fitting - With Physio, Bryan McCullough

Ep 57: A Eurobike Special - Redefining LORE Custom Shoes & Lessons From a Bikefitr
