Objectives + Variables being tested
Our mission as a group is to understanding riding a bicycle and the physics behind it. We have decided to explore three variables:
Gear ratios
Bike stability
Braking
By understanding how these three things work, we will hopefully be able to ride a bike more effectively (and teach Celina how to ride a bike!)

Gear ratios (Part 1)
Our group rode a bike 15 meters with different gears, affecting how many times the pedals rotated. These are the results: -L is left/f...
Braking (Part 1)
-Braking uses friction -Squeezing the levels on the handlebars send small metal cables, causing rubber shoes clamp onto the metal inner sur...
What does a gear look like? (GIF)
For every one rotation of Gear A, Gear B rotates twice. This means the gear ratio of this gear is 1:2

Check out all the hard work we've done. Be prepared for some mind blowing biking physics coming your way soon!
Gear ratios (Part 2)
What are gear ratios? The gear ratio is the ratio of the number of teeth on the chainring of the crankset to the teeth on the rear sprocke...
Bike stability (Part 1)
What keeps a bike upright? We have concluded that there are two main variables that keep a bike upright: gyroscopic wheels and centripetal...
