1. What is your project about? What is the best seat height for doing jumps on BMX bikes? 2. Why did you choose this project? I chose this project because I like riding BMX bikes and want to know what's the best seat height for jumping on my BMX bike. 1. What was your result/ overall conclusion? My results were that the lower you put your seat the higher you will be able to jump on a BMX bike. 1. Why is your project important? My project is important because if you want to or ride a BMX bike you can know what's the best seat height for doing jumps on your bike
Great job! It was very cool to read about your BMX bike project. I wonder if different seat heights would work better for different types of jumps?
You brought your real life into this project, and that matters. Testing three different jump types, not just one, shows you thought about how seat height works in different situations on a real BMX track.
Your research paper pulled from five real sources and connected seat height to injury, technique, and bike performance. That is good preparation.
