I am working on various bicycle/MTB zines. Here are some resources you all might find interesting.

Bicycle physics concepts and simulations: https://ciechanow.ski/bicycle/
Whipple Bicycle Model in Python: https://pypi.org/project/BicycleParameters/
SymPy Bicycle Simulation: https://docs.sympy.org/latest/modules/p ... ample.html
Bicycling Science Book amazon link with $6 used copies: https://www.amazon.com/dp/0262731541

edit: updated amazon link. Thanks @mathiverse!

Bicycles and Tricycles - A Classic Treatise on Their Design and Construction: https://www.amazon.com/Bicycles-Tricycl ... 0486429873

This is a great mechanical engineering and design book originally published in 1896 when some of the best engineers in the world were working on bicycles rather than cars and planes. This is a new favorite in my DIY MechE degree focused on bicycles.
