Are tight calves causing you to go over the bars? If your calves are tight and you can’t get into the correct positions on the bike you’re more likely to have a fall. In this video i discuss a rider with tight calves who kept going over his handlebars on downhills, I then show you how to mobilise the muscle of the lower leg and stretch them out to get back that range of motion. If this is useful give me a thumbs up and if you’ve got some video ideas pop them in the comments.
