Ergonomic insights into bicycle design: the significance of hip and shoulder adduction-abduction angles.
The association of comfortable hip and shoulder adduction-abduction angles with anthropometrics, range of motion (ROM), and bicycle variables was investigated using a detailed biomechanical analysis. It offers insights and contributes to a better bicycle design by identifying optimal joint angles for improved ergonomic fit and rider performance.
