商品描述
This book is not just for professional cyclists who look to improve their performance on the bicycle. The bicycle is also used in a variety of activities by enthusiasts in commuting; club riding and long-distance solo adventures. By gaining a deeper understanding of the human factors and physiology, cyclists can self-coach to improve their cycling with improved comfort and speed. However, it is often the perception of the cycling enthusiast that the latest frame and component technology play a significant role in rider performance. While this may be true for the professional rider it is because they are biomechanically fitted to their machine.
Hence, the purpose of this book is to look beyond the tradition and myth of bicycle setup to help the motivated everyday rider gain a practical understating of the factors that influence their performance. This can be achieved in combination with web-based application tools. If the reader wishes to go further, the book demonstrates a method to build their own power dynamometer to gain an objective measure of their forces (kinetics) of motion. Essentially, by gaining knowledge of cycling biomechanics and measuring and evaluate their own performance, the reader may become their own coach.

這本書不僅僅是為了那些希望提升自行車表現的專業自行車手而寫的。自行車也被熱愛者用於各種活動，包括通勤、俱樂部騎行和長途獨自冒險。透過深入了解人因學和生理學，自行車手可以自我指導，以提高騎行的舒適度和速度。然而，自行車愛好者常常認為最新的車架和零件技術在騎乘表現中扮演著重要角色。雖然這對於專業騎手來說可能是正確的，但這是因為他們的生物力學與他們的機器相匹配。
因此，本書的目的是超越自行車設置的傳統和神話，幫助有動力的日常騎手獲得影響其表現的因素的實用理解。這可以通過網路應用工具來實現。如果讀者希望更進一步，本書展示了一種建造自己的功率測量儀的方法，以獲得其運動力（動力學）的客觀測量。基本上，透過獲得自行車生物力學的知識並測量和評估自己的表現，讀者可以成為自己的教練。
作者簡介
Dr Anthony Crimin has enjoyed running and cycling since school times, although he would often cycle to running races as it was more enjoyable than running. After graduating with a degree in Product Design Engineering and then perusing an early career in Oil & Gas, he decided to peruse an Engineering Doctorate at the University of Strathclyde investigating the biomechanics of the lower limb prosthetic users. Afterwards, he worked for Dyson and investigated some novel methods for measuring the interaction between the user and product. However, on his birthday in 2016, while cycling, he was struck head-on by a car and was left with injuries that significantly reduced his performance on the bicycle. The tools available at the time were primarily to aid aerobic training rather than helping cyclists improve their technique or aid recovery. This set him on the journey which resulted in the creation of this book.
Dr Anthony McGarry is a Senior Teaching Fellow, Health Care Professionals Council registered prosthetist/orthotist, Department of Biomedical Engineering, University of Strathclyde. He is responsible for undergraduate /postgraduate tuition in lower limb prosthetics. Before joining the University, he worked as a clinician in Oxford and cycled everywhere as he did not own a car. Academic interests include: clinical management; socket design, shape capture methods and prosthetic gait analysis. He obtained a PhD in Evaluation of prosthetic shape capture systems in the University of Strathclyde in 2009. He is happiest with his wife and family and is the father of three boys, each a budding cyclist.
作者簡介(中文翻譯)
安東尼·克里敏博士自學校時期以來就喜愛跑步和騎自行車，儘管他經常騎自行車前往跑步比賽，因為這比跑步更有趣。在獲得產品設計工程學位後，他在石油和天然氣行業開始了早期的職業生涯，隨後決定在斯特拉斯克萊德大學攻讀工程博士，研究下肢假肢使用者的生物力學。之後，他在戴森工作，研究了一些測量使用者與產品之間互動的新方法。然而，在2016年的生日那天，他在騎自行車時被一輛汽車正面撞擊，受了傷，這大大降低了他在自行車上的表現。當時可用的工具主要是幫助有氧訓練，而不是幫助騎自行車者改善技術或促進恢復。這使他踏上了創作本書的旅程。
安東尼·麥嘉利博士是斯特拉斯克萊德大學生物醫學工程系的高級教學研究員，並且是健康護理專業人員委員會註冊的假肢/矯形器專家。他負責本科生和研究生的下肢假肢教學。在加入大學之前，他曾在牛津擔任臨床醫生，並且因為沒有車而四處騎自行車。他的學術興趣包括：臨床管理；假肢插座設計、形狀捕捉方法和假肢步態分析。他於2009年在斯特拉斯克萊德大學獲得假肢形狀捕捉系統評估的博士學位。他與妻子和家人一起最為快樂，是三個男孩的父親，每個孩子都是有潛力的騎自行車者。
