Posivelo Bike Fit Menu

A good bike fit needs to solve the issues the cyclist may be having and help the rider meet their cycling goals. We look to establish a neutral athletic posture that at once will permit balance of comfort and a good bike handling and experience, the ability to generate power to the pedal in a stable movement and aerodynamics depending pn event specifics. Posivelo will analyze the rider kinematics in order to minimize injury and maximize efficiency and power generation.

Comprehensive Aero fit for TRI, TT, Track pursuit 3.5hr.

450

 This fit a balance between given event guidelines and rules, duration, aerodynamic resistance and optimized biomechanical output with the lowest metabolic cost possible.  This is a fit covering all points of contact with a focus on aerodynamics.  

Posivelo has a long list of Olympic, track pursuit and Ironman athletes who can attest to the quality of our services. 

Comprehensive Fit for ROAD or TRACK, MTB 3.5hr.

400

The fit starts with a comprehensive physical assessment and interview then uses most of the fit tools we have in the studio in combination with our EYES. Motion capture, pressure mapping  technology from Gebiomized along with the latest in high-speed video technology. 

Designed to understand your abilities, experience, limitations and issues then adjust your bike to fit you, creating harmony of bike and rider.  


Studio Fit 1.5hr.

225

 Our most popular offering, this is a primarily analog fit session meaning we don’t employ the fit tooling to the same degree but it does cover all bases to ensure a good marriage between the body and bike. The Studio Fit is designed to position riders in a good balanced athletic posture based  on their goals to ensure efficient riding and injury prevention. Fit works to solve any fit problems and areas of discomfort but does not delve into performance optimization.

Positioning for bike purchase part 1 and 2 2.5hr.

325

The positioning service for bike purchase includes two sessions. The first session (1.5hr duration.) allows us to establish your optimal position using your old bike or our adjustable bike. At the end of this first session, we will have determined the ideal measurements for your new bike and we will be able to recommend the ideal model and size for your new bike.


In the second 1 hour session, we will refine the position once a new bike has been built to specifications.

Bioracer virtual aero testing

150

 In the absence of testing data from a wind tunnel, fluid dynamics or velodrome test we employ the Bioracer Virtual Wind Tunnel green screen to provide live feedback on front area of a given aerodynamic posture. Bioracer Aero system is able to cut out out the rider on a green screen with a view to measuring the biggest component in the coefficient of drag acting on a rider, the A in CdA, or size of the frontal area. 

Track Aero TestinG

STABILITY - POWER - AERODYNAMICS

  

Aero is massively important! In order to minimize air resistance and to get the most performance out of the riders’ position, we optimize the bodies’ interaction with their equipment in order to maximize performance and minimize the chance of injury from unnecessary movement or unsustainable postures on the bike. We now offer aero testing for professional and amateur riders in the newly minted CNCB Bromont Sylvan Adams velodrome. 


The measuring tool we use is the Garmin Track Aero System (TAS) formerly Alphamantis and it is the gold standard in aerodynamic analysis.  The process measures your CdA as you ride around the  velodrome, wirelessly sending the data to the analyst in track centre.  Small changes in position and equipment set up are compared to a baseline  and  with multiple runs eventually we can chip away at the air resistance and make you more  aerodynamic  for a given power output. 


The track is thus turned into a laboratory, with trackside computers calculating live CdA values.

 Testing sessions are performed at the CNCB Sylvan Adams Velodrome in Bromont Quebec and can be arranged for an individual or group booking.
