Increased Q-Factor increases frontal-plane knee joint loading in stationary cycling

BACKGROUND: Q-Factor (QF), or the inter-pedal width, in cycling is similar to step-width in gait. Although increased step-width has been shown to reduce peak knee abduction moment (KAbM), no studies have examined the biomechanical effects of increased QF in cycling at different workrates in healthy...
