What is Posivelo

Geoff Farnsworth - lead fitter

Positional bike POSI + VELO is the name given to the variety of bike fit services and supply we provide. 


Geoff Farnsworth is a native Montrealer and has a lifelong experience as a cyclist. Having raced competitively as a mountain biker, been  a race team manager and partner in a bike shop,  he turned his interests toward long distance bike camping and one-day fondos. More recently he is a multiple Race Across America ( RAAM ) participant. 

He has worked with many Cycling Canada and Team Quebec athletes, specifically for aero optimization. ​Geoff is also the Canadian representative for the SecretSaddle Club saddles and Gebiomized technology. 

SecretSaddle Club

 Welcome to a new world of cycling saddles! Developed by bike fitters, made for bike fitters. Based on more than 15 years of experience in building custom cycling saddles, more than 50,000 analyses of Gebiomized saddle pressure mappings with thousands and thousands cds of cyclists and backed with valuable input from some of the worlds finest and most famous bike fitters, we proudly present the very first line of gebioMized saddles. 

Gebiomized Canada

I am just beginning my journey with new tooling from Gebiomized pressure mapping and video analysis software and hardware but it is a game changer.  No longer is there a need to  guess how a client’s body responds to a fit, therefore, the client and bike fitter have more confidence and more unbiased data on the changes  made. 


Welcome Jules Cusson-Fradet

Jules has joined the Posivelo bike fitting team!. A kinesiologist and holder of a master's degree in sports science (University of Montreal), Jules has developed a genuine passion for optimizing human performance, exercise physiology and data science. Over the past 5 years, he has collaborated on various research projects in partnership with high performance sports organizations. An experienced athlete, still active on the elite road cycling circuit, he has participated in several international competitions, including the prestigious Tour de Beauce, the Philadelphia International Cycling Classic and the Tour du Rwanda. Hungry for knowledge, he reads practically everything related directly or indirectly to sports performance. He is recognized for his attention to detail, his ability to marry the latest scientific advances with field practice, and his deep desire to help and advise others towards their goals.

Tools and Technology

Gebiomized pressure mapping and cameras

Gebiomized pressure mapping and cameras

Gebiomized pressure mapping and cameras

 

Posivelo employ the Gebiomized saddle and foot  pressure mapping systems.  Developed by Daniel Schade, as part of his Master thesis at U of Munster in Germany, this system allows for quick, reliable analysis of the rider’s saddle and foot pressure distribution.

Both systems permit a type of evidence based view through  the point of contact to view in unbiased terms how the rider is interacting with the point of contact.  Allied to the rest of the rest of the fit process, this evidence can help direct a fit towards the changes that need to happen to achieve your goal.



3D Motion capture Technology

We  have been using Retul for the last 7 years and Geoff is one of a handful of Master Certified practioners in Canada. 

 The static fit process can't tell the fitter what’s happening dynamically when the rider is moving and applying load to the pedal.  Retul provides the tool that allows and helps us get a better understanding of bike position in the real world and can often spot details and connections that the eye does not.    Another Retul product is the adjustable  'MUVE'  fit bike which permits  exploration of  saddle position, trial of  a variety of crank lengths, handle bar position.  The Muve is especially used in cases of new bike selection, exploration of aero position and  in cases where the front end of the bike is integrated in the bike design.

Retul offers quick, reliable data to be gathered; not only about the rider but also the bike. The 'ZIN' function uses the same 3D motion capture technology that allows the riders dynamic joint angle data to be collected to assure the bike itself. Every fit we offer over 1.5 hours  leaves with a Retul report on both themselves and the bike. 

Data alone means practically nothing by itself and requires an experienced technician to analyze and interpret the data and advise the fit process.
