In order to reduce to load for handicapped person who ride the FES (Functional Electrical Stimulation) cycling, oval gear crank was used for FES cycling instead of circular gear clank. Joint moments were calculated for able-bodied person with voluntary and FES cycling motion by using oval and circular gear crank. Result indicated that joint moment took larger value for voluntary cycling motion than that of FES cycling motion. Moreover, it is clearly that the stimulus timing of the FES signal should be selected properly to realize a stronger rotating torque.
