The aim of this study was to quantify the validity and intra-tester reliability of a novel method
of kinematic measurement. The measurement target was the joint angles of an athlete …

The aim of this literature review was to identify the depth and scope of peer reviewed
literature on rider kinematics of the Bicycle Motocross Supercross (BMX SX) gate start …

The article deals with a biomechanics analysis of the classic bicross start with a backward
movement of the bike. This is a case study analyzing this type of start in two bicross riders …

Purpose: In modern sprint cycling competitions, the athletes perform a preparatory
movement that consists in reaching the backmost standing position, quickly accelerating the …

Abstract Bicycle Motor Cross (BMX) Supercross (SX) racing is a relatively new sport with
little formal research to support it. A fast start is critical to race performance as an advantage …

Trials is a specialty of off-road cycling in which the rider has to face obstacle courses without
resting feet on the ground. Technique in this sport has a great importance, since it reduces …

Introduction: The BMX start is crucial for race performance, often measured by the time to the
kink at 3.15 m from the start. Objective: This study aims to optimize the BMX SX gate start …

A fast start during BMX racing is strongly related to superior performance. The purpose of
this study was to identify which aspects of starting technique were related to a further …

Freewheel mechanisms are predominantly used in several industries for obtaining uni-
directional transfer of rotary motion, such as conveyer belts. In the current study, innovative …

La performance sportive de haut niveau est le résultat de multiples intéractions au sein d'un
