Sunday March 9th, 12:00 PM
Seminar room: 123 (Atrium Level)
Presented by Bob Rose
Assuming a more flexible frame is more comfortable, is there a meaningful ‘power penalty’ associated with a more flexible frame? After discussing that the power penalty (i.e., Watts) of a cyclist flexing a frame while pedaling is very small, join in a conversation of what these findings mean going forward. As a bonus, does the bicycle community actually understand how the frame (just the frame in this case) impacts comfort? Thoughts on this will be presented as well.
