There are a range of fitness components that contribute to successful cycling performance. More than one is usually important, though in this poll we ask you only to nominate what you consider the most important fitness component. As there is a large range of cycling events, for this exercise we will consider just the event of road racing. There are many other factors for success in cycling — see the survey and rate each of them.
