Lower back pain on climbs ? bike fit issue or muscular one ?
Hi everyone,
I had a professional bike fit a few months ago which improved my comfort, but I still get a localized lower right back pain when riding outdoors.
The pain:
- Appears after a few kilometers
- Is worse on climbs
- Disappears immediately when I sit upright or ride out of the saddle
- Never happens on the trainer
Other observations:
- Right leg feels dominant
- Bib shorts wear more on the right side
- No knee, hip, neck or hand pain
- Core strength is not great (~30s plank)
Do you see anything unusual in my position, pedaling mechanics, saddle stability or pelvic movement that could explain it?
Thanks!
