PRACTICAL TESTS AND RESULTS OF RATIONAL CONSTRUCTION AND TECHNOLOGY OF CYCLING SHOES.
Keywords:
Cycling shoes, rational construction, technology, performance, comfort, efficiency, testing, footwear design.Abstract
This article explores the practical tests and results associated with the rational construction and technology of cycling shoes. The aim is to enhance performance, comfort, and efficiency for cyclists by optimizing shoe design and manufacturing techniques. The study presents various construction methodologies, testing procedures, and evaluations aimed at developing superior cycling footwear.
Key findings and recommendations are provided for future improvements in cycling shoe design.
