From: humberto.bortolossi on 13 Apr 2010 13:56 Greetings! I'm looking for references (articles, books) about the mathematics and physics of bycicle tires profiles. How are their shapes determined? Are there any optimal/cost/safety issues involved? I've found this link: http://www.hydra-glide.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=60&t=752 Thanks in advance, Humberto.
