Resumo

Ergonomics in cycling is an important factor for the prevention of musculoskeletal injuries and performance improvement. Its application resulted in the creation of models responsible for the suitability of the bicycle to the physical characteristics of the cyclist. The proposed methodologies are based on anthropometric and postural assessments. There are commercial techniques for this purpose, but the factors make the demotivating investment for recreational cyclists. Aiming at these challenges was developed the Bike Sense, a system of aid in the ergonomic adaptation of cyclists that seeks to promote simple assessments, fast and without the need for training.
