The requirements vary with each discipline from maneuverability, shock absorption, aerodynamics, paddling energy efficiency, rigidity, and stability. In this project we will be introducing the 5 types of disciplines but focusing our study on downhill mountain biking. A study will be conducted to find the self-stabilizing velocity of the bicycle, the rolling friction coefficient of the tire and the road, and the damping coefficient and stiffness for spring dampers. |
