COD - 8/1/2012 - Science of Cycling [Science]

The Science of Cycling is the second in a series of planned sports science resources from the Exploratorium focusing on the science behind popular spectator and recreational sports.

Get the answers to questions such as "Why do road bikes have thin tires, while mountain bikes have fat tires?", "What are the best materials for frames?", and "How does drafting help a cyclist?"

The Science of Cycling is divided into six main sections:

  • The Wheel
  • Drives & Gears
  • Frames & Materials
  • Braking & Steering
  • Aerodynamics
  • Human Power

Included are twenty audio and video clips, many images, and interactive elements. The Science of Cycling is an introduction to an enormous and fascinating topic. You can also find information on the history and unique culture of cycling at the Science of Cycling
