Gebiomized and Velogicfit Partner to Revolutionize Dynamic Bike Fitting
MUNICH, Germany (May 3, 2025) – Bicycle ergonomics experts Gebiomized and Velogicfit have announced a partnership aimed at transforming dynamic bike fitting. Beginning this month, Gebiomized will be the exclusive distributor of Velogicfit products in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland.
Holistic Approach to Optimal Cycling
The collaboration integrates precise pressure measurement with 3D movement analysis, creating a thorough system for cyclists. This system aims to optimize seating positions and customize saddles. The technology is already in use in the progress of tailor-made saddles, such as the Fizik One2ONE.
Data Fusion for Cyclist and Bicycle Interaction
Velogicfit’s system uses a professional deep camera to capture 3D movement data and 2D video. This technology tracks markers, or specific pixels, to gather precise data on a cyclist’s movements. Combined with Gebiomized’s pressure measurement data, a complete picture of the interaction between cyclist and bicycle emerges.
Saddle development Applications
Beyond bike fitting, the technology informs the development of individualized saddles. The Fizik One2ONE saddle is one example. Pressure measurements are used to create custom saddle pads via 3D printing. The process begins with pressure readings on a cyclist’s existing saddle in various riding conditions. A dedicated app than analyzes the data to determine the ideal saddle shape.
Looking Ahead: The Future of Bicycle Ergonomics
The partnership extends beyond distribution. Both companies plan to share knowledge to further develop their product lines.
Paraic McGlynn, CEO of Velogicfit, emphasized the significance of the collaboration. “It is an unprecedented time in which bike fitters have synchronized and correlated all of these tools in order to gain new knowledge,” McGlynn said.
Gebiomized CEO Daniel Schade said the company is proud to partner with Velogicfit to elevate bike fitting worldwide. “In addition to the pressure measurement, the analysis of movement patterns and quality was always of enormous importance for our bike fitting concept,” Schade said.
Professional bike fitting using Gebiomized and Velogicfit’s pressure measurement and 3D movement analysis is available at select dealers starting this month.
