The rear rollers will be attached in some kinematics fashion (to be designed) to a DC generator whose output is shunted through an electrical load that can be varied by the rider to provide a dynamometric resistance. Design all parts with suitable geometries and materials for infinite life. (NB: Use the design process to answer this question) 1.
