be a delay, since the shocks cannot travel with unlimited speed through the fork. However the shocks
travel faster through the fork than the sampling time of the acceleration sensor (5 ms, corresponding to a
sampling frequency of 200 Hz). In all other measurements this delay was also zero samples, i.e. less than
5 ms.
The time it takes for the shock to arrive at the rear wheel and seatposts was 24 samples during this test
ride. Since the wheelbase of the bike is just over 1 meter, these 24 samples correspond with the average
speed:
