Abstract
A system comprising structures connected to the rider of human-powered vehicles improves the force a rider may apply to the vehicle. The elements are primarily connected to the lower body and legs of the rider, with attachment to the rider's shoes, whereby a two-dimensional four-bar linkage is formed. Use of the system may permit a rider to go faster or farther with less effort. An optional novel shoe may be used with or without the other elements of the system.
