    So skimmed and read the conclusion of the vibration paper... And I'm just wondering what the point of the project was? To prove that vibration causes fatigue? Seems pretty obvious.. The TLDR of the conclusion: Riders experience a huge amount of vibration during enduro riding, it is unknown if there are adverse side affects.

    • @sebharvey4497
      @sebharvey4497 5 років тому

      TheCrookedWheel I think the point was to measure the vibrations and compare to a work place standard to see if it was higher than the that amount. That standard is set knowing that there are real life impacts on people who experience that level of vibration on a regular basis. The fact that EWS riders experience this level of vibration, therefore raises the question if more should be done about it.
      Like so much of science it takes lots of effort to get small bits of evidence. This is just one bit of the puzzle that may help.

    • @TheCrookedWheel
      @TheCrookedWheel 5 років тому +1

      @@jackhaffenhoff1365 A quick google shows that risk for "white knuckle syndrome" occurs between 50 and 300 hz, in the study it was shown that the absolute peak vibration shown was 50hz. Vibration, imo, is a non issue and riders should be more conscious of the stress riding places on wrists and ankle tendons during impacts.
