Bicycle ergonomics and cycling mobility in Bogotá

Proper bicycle sizing and saddle height are critical for rider comfort and injury prevention. Incorrect saddle height can lead to reduced performance, muscle overload, or hip oscillations, while improper frame sizing can cause discomfort in the knees, back, neck, or hands.

In Bogotá, the 19th edition of Bicycle Week is being held to promote sustainable mobility. Data from the Bogotá-Region Mobility Survey indicates that approximately 886,655 daily trips are made by bicycle in the capital, accounting for about 7% of all displacements.
