A comprehensive bike fit covering all points of contact with a bent toward performance and aerodynamics in order to find the balance point at which the body is at it’s most compact low profile while comfortable enough to still able to generate power for the duration of the event. The sustainability of the position for event duration is key otherwise the benefits of the position are lost. Posivelo has a long list of Olympic, World Championship, track pursuit and Ironman athletes who can attest to the quality of our aero fitting services.
