Cyclists needed for research project on sprint performance

The CU Locomotion Laboratory is looking for subjects for a road cycling shoe study that you may be eligible for! 

Participants must:

  • Be over 18 years old
  • Be in good health
  • Cycle (outdoors or indoors) at least four hours per week
  • Have at least one year of road biking experience
  • Be able to comfortably ride either a 52- or 56-cm road bike frame
  • Fit a shoe size of Euro 38–39 or 43–45

Participation involves two approximately two-hour long sessions: riding a series of 50-meter sprints on an uphill road in Boulder and riding a series of standing start sprints inside the Locomotion Lab at CU Boulder. The repeat sprints will compare different road cycling shoe models.

Participants will receive one $25 Amazon gift card per 2-hour session.

COVID protocols: Participants in this study will be screened prior to participation, researchers are required to wear masks, and the testing bikes will be sanitized between subjects.
