This document highlights the benefits of suspension systems in mountain bikes. It discusses how suspension bikes improve comfort, reduce fatigue, and enhance performance, especially for riders with back problems or those tackling rough terrain.

Wheelchair users face health risks from whole-body vibrations on uneven surfaces like interlocking and poured concrete. Proper sidewalk materials, such as pavers with bevels under 6mm, can reduce vibration exposure and improve safety without hindering propulsion.

This study examines how wheelchair suspension systems reduce shock and vibrations, improving comfort and minimizing health risks. Suspension caster forks proved highly effective, while rear suspensions offered additional but less consistent benefits, highlighting the importance of vibration reduction for user safety.

This study examines WBV exposure for wheelchair users on different sidewalks, finding higher risks with poured concrete and worsening vibrations over time due to wear. It emphasizes smoother materials and improved wheelchair designs to reduce injuries like back and neck pain.

This study explores how whole-body vibration (WBV) impacts wheelchair users, contributing to discomfort, low back pain, muscle spasms, and fatigue. Shock-absorbing caster forks, such as Frog Legs, significantly reduce vibrations, enhancing comfort and reducing injury risks.

The study examines how rear-suspension systems reduce shocks and vibrations during curb descents. Findings highlight that suspension designs, especially monoshock-based systems, lower seat forces and head accelerations, resulting in smoother landings and improved ride quality.

This research evaluates how suspension manual wheelchairs perform during curb descents. Suspension designs reduce vibrations better than folding and rigid frames, especially for lower curb heights, improving comfort and reducing risks from whole-body vibrations.
