Research

Below are some of our independent research projects

Kinematic Optimization

In this video, we do a deep dive into our Kinematic Optimizer tool that we built out in Python.

How Much Traction do New Tires Buy You?

For this study, we compared a well-worn tire with a brand new one. We sought to understand how much more traction a new tire buys you, and what traction actually means in a rigorous, mathematical sense. We are pleased that this project was featured on Pinkbike.

Pedal Kickback: A Quantitative Approach

We decided to find out whether or not pedal kickback actually happens out in the field. We are pleased that this project was featured on Pinkbike.
