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.

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!
