Located in Fort Collins, Colorado USA, the CPT Wind Tunnel offers the most accurate biomechanical and aerodynamic testing facility in the world. Our expert staff will optimize your position by finding the balance between power output (biomechanical efficiency) and aerodynamics, or power to drag ratio. It is a process that demands clear instruction, measurement, and rigorous attention to detail. Through our unique protocol, we will measure your drag coefficient in the wind tunnel, then replicated a few of the positions on our position cycle and velotron to measure the power output in the respective positions. With this, we are able to determine your most optimal position. CPT welcomes Position Optimization™.

Position Optimization™ applies the science of aerodynamics and wind drag to maximize biomechanical and physiological efficiency.

To the right is our data acquisition program. Through our proprietary data software, it tells us everything we need to know, all in real time, to make you faster. We can see how many watts and how many seconds you've saved over any distance.

70 to 90 percent of the power an athlete produces goes to overcoming airflow resistance. Aerodynamics and efficiency is much more important than people think – and it’s not just for the pros anymore. We’ve designed a series of testing platforms and protocols at our wind tunnel that measure all the variables needed to establish your optimal position on a bike. By measuring wind drag, power output, and heart rate, we can shave precious seconds, even minutes off your best times. Our coaches, physiologists, and aerodynamicists use our Position Optimization™ method to give you every performance advantage.
