Pedals
Within compact ellipticals, the function of pedals is to determine leverage and the position from which force enters the movement at the input or starting-condition stage.
- Role: The role of pedals is to mark the input or starting-condition stage of this operating chain.
- Use: To assess pedals, align the contact point with a repeatable joint position and range.
- Limit: With pedals, a mismatched position can shift stress or shorten usable motion.
