Climate-controlled interiors to ensure consistent testing conditions year-round.
Motion capture is often augmented with other sensors to create a complete picture: If you would like to expand this article,
But that’s why we have the lab.
In the hyper-regulated world of modern bike manufacturing, a final, critical confinement exists within the scope of international compliance testing. Can’t copy the link right now
Instead of waiting years to test if a new intersection design works, researchers can get data in weeks.
Testing how riders and e-bike batteries perform in extreme heat or freezing sub-zero conditions.
But store a bike for a long time—in an attic, a basement, or a climate-controlled shipping container—and you reveal hidden failure modes. Flat spots on tires. Frozen freewheels. Corrosion inside seat tubes. Brake levers that seize from lack of use.
How do autonomous cars, buses, and delivery drones interact with cyclists?
