Use suspension and damping

6.16.1 Locking the suspension

A suspension system is designed to cushion and
compensate for unevenness on a surface whether
the user is riding on bumpy cycle paths, dirt roads
or off road.
A suspension system absorbs great deal of motor
and muscle power during rides uphill or on
optimally tarmacked roads. This increases energy
consumption and reduces propulsion. It thus
makes sense to lock the suspension on
tarmacked roads and when riding uphill.
