  • he doesnt have full control on the left side of his body so they shortened his crank so it is more efficient peddeling. how do i know this? well me n my dad have ridden with him and are now friends.

  • Fantastic!!! 1: 14 on the 1k TT is an outstanding result for any athlete! For a handicapped athlete is just out of this world!

  • @fixedtrix1 because they slow the bike down.

  • why dont they have brakes?

  • OMG!!!!!!!!! This guy is AMAZING!!!!!!!! And, I know what I am talking about, being a former UCI 1k TT racer. My first attempt in training, I popped off a blazing 1:20. Afet a solid year of training, I was able to regularly clock a 1:10. In competitions, I was posting an average of 1:07's. For someone to do this, with such limits as he has, is truly impressive. Kudos to you, Simon! Challenges don't stop you!

  • why is the outside crank longer than the inside?

  • DANG!!!!!! whats his gearing

  • The reason his crank is shorter on the one side is because of his classifaction as a LC3, meaning he technically can use only one leg. They actually changed this rule now and you can no longer use a shorter crank. I know this because I race in the LC3 class as a AK amputee

  • @chummy93 I' m^Physical Therapy. It's first time that i see a video of paralympic ciclist. ¿he have a amputation in his lefft leg at femur lever?. I think that is time is absolutely incredible. The prothesis of the leg is for estethic porpurses?

  • why is the left crank way smaller than the right? duh fuhhh?

  • Having it in the front will make the bicycle harder to control.

    While the bicycle is turning the air will not be hitting the front wheel head-on, making the bicycle wobble.

  • woooo simon!
