Equations to Prescribe Bicycle Saddle Height based on Desired Joint Kinematics and Bicycle Geometry.

These equations provide a novel, practical strategy for bicycle-fit that accounts for rider anthropometrics, bicycle geometry and user-defined kinematics. HighlightsThis work developed simple equations to prescribed bicycle saddle height that elicits desired knee kinematics.Separate equations are presented for prescribing minimum or maximum knee flexion angle.Equations can be generalized to riders of both sexes, and a breadth of anthropometrics and ages.
