Bini, R. R., Hume, P. “…A clear definition of bike fitting has not yet been agreed upon but the assumed process involves optimising posture and movement through changes in the bicycle and in the posture of the cyclist [2]. These changes can involve replacing components of the bicycle (e.g. saddle) or altering the position of the handlebar and saddle or the foot attachment to the pedals. …”

Taylor, M., Butcher, D., Crickmore, C., Walker, A. D. “…Wind tunnel tests of a rider model (without bicycle) were conducted at Reynolds numbers equivalent to speeds of ~ 20-70 km/h. …”

Verwulgen, S., Danckaers, F., Audenaert, E., Duquesne, K., Steenackers, G., Ribbens, B., Sijbers, J., Verwulgen, S. “…Inclusive design: From bicycle design to infrastructure development, the industry often overlooks the specific needs and preferences of female cyclists. …”

Ghaderi, O., Cafiso, S., Caponnetto, R., Pappalardo, G. “…Vibration caused by lack of pavement maintenance affects the comfort, health and safety of cyclists and has been identified as one of the main infrastructural barriers to cycling. The focus of this paper is to investigate how the physical characteristics of bicycles affect the vibration response under different pavement conditions, and to explore the potential of crowdsourced collection with sensor-equipped bicycles to collect data for road condition and comfort assessment of micro-mobility users. …”

Covill, D., Drouet, J.-M. “…Previous studies have shown how finite element analysis (FEA) can be used to support designers and frame builders in the selection of butted tubes to tune the stiffness and strength behaviour of steel bicycles. The aim of this paper was therefore to analyse the effects of tube butting on the stiffness, stress distribution and energy absorption behaviour of bicycle frames using numerical simulations. …”

Fitzgerald, S., Kelso, R., Grimshaw, P., Warr, A. “…A series of measurements taken with two instrumented track bicycles in a velodrome are presented. The bicycle wheel speed, cadence, roll angle, steering angle, power, and airspeed are recorded. …”

Evans, S. A., Ballhause, K., James, D. A., Rowlands, D., Lee, J. B. “…The focus of this paper was to identify the legitimacy of a sacrum mounted triaxial accelerometer to identify temporal acceleration magnitudes of the centre of mass (CoM) whilst cycling against a motion analysis system. …”

Konovalovas, I., Milašius, K. “…Study organization and methods. The paper summarizes the structure and content of the elite road cyclist`s preparation for the World Championship, his physical and functional capacity changes in the annual training cycle. …”

Malizia, F., Blocken, B. “…The last decades have seen an increasing interest in cycling aerodynamics, with the design of more aerodynamic bicycles and wearable equipment such as helmets and skinsuits and the development and application of new cyclist positions. …”

van Druenen, T., Blocken, B. “…Some studies even suggested that for gradients above 7.2% the speeds drop to 17 km/h and the air resistance can be neglected. In this paper, uphill drafting is analyzed and quantified by means of drag reductions and power reductions obtained by computational fluid dynamics simulations validated with wind tunnel measurements. …”

Krumm, D., Schwanitz, S., Buder, J., Odenwald, S. “…The use of artificial neural networks (ANNs) seems to be a promising opportunity to overcome those limitations. Hence, this paper focuses on the following research question: Can strain gauges integrated into a bicycle frame be used to estimate the PO in road cycling?…”

Hilmkil, A., Ivarsson, O., Johansson, M., Kuylenstierna, D., van Erp, T. “…Recently, machine learning techniques have provided huge success in a wide variety of areas where large amounts of data (big data) is available. In this paper, we perform a pilot experiment on machine learning to model physical response in elite cyclists. …”

Minne, K., Macoir, N., Rossey, J., Van den Brande, Q., Lemey, S., Hoebeke, J., De Poorter, E. “…There is no research available that investigates the feasibility of UWB technology for indoor track cycling.
