| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aimed to develop a saddle adjustment device of a competitive bicycle. This study focused on the pattern of muscle activity of the leg muscles recruited in the pedaling exercise and proposed the visualization technique of pedaling skill. By using this visualization technique, the training system of pedaling skill was developed. The experimental results clarified that the motion of pulling the pedal up and the ankling motion were detected as the characteristic movements of the pedaling skill. For future, this study will discuss the control method determining the saddle position according to the physical property of a cyclist.
