mountain bike accident reconstruction

Using the principles of mechanical engineering, we conduct site and equipment inspections; and use physical evidence such as injuries and vehicle damage to guide our analyses. In addition, crash test dummies are used to examine the validity of a claim to determine possible accident configurations. Without witnesses and the number of variables on mountain bike trails, accident reconstruction can be very difficult. However, our engineers are well versed with the physics of bicycles and how they operate on trails along with using effective technology like faro scanners. So we will be able to accurately find the cause of the wreck or failure of the mountain bike.

Mechanical engineering experts then may be called upon to evaluate the mechanisms of a bicycle to determine if the engineering process is responsible after the occurrence of an accident. Experts in failure analysis are often utilized for lawsuits involving bicycle accidents to assess the mechanical error and/or human factors involved with the case.
