Hi everyone I am a third year student in Mechanical Engineering at Purdue University and am on a design team this semester with the task of helping to solve the problem of preventing injuries caused from cycling.

It is a pretty general problem statement right now, but I am wondering what are some of the most pressing safety issues with cycling?

I have looked at knee injuries from overriding and injuries sustained from accidents and still can't decide what a better problem to solve would be.

If you guys have any tips or suggestions, even ideas you would like to see made into a functional design let me know. We will be working with CAD so I can even post final products on here when the semester is over.

Thanks,
Sam
