Leisure bike became a trend among the people in Malaysia as their method of exercise. The problem rises as the riders start to complain about their muscle fatigue after long cycling. This study aims to determine how the changing of material of the bicycle frame and the insertion of the suspension system can reduce vibration. This study was conducted using aluminium alloy as the material for bicycle frame to reduce the vibration and the weight of the bike. The suspension system has also been customized into the bicycle frame as the main vibration absorber. The CAD model was developed and been analysed using static and dynamic analysis based on the specific boundary condition. The result showed a small deformation occurs on the frame that causes the frame to deflect from the original shape as depicted in modal analysis. Overall, it is concluded that a suspension system adopted on the bicycle frame can have a significant enhancement in vibration reduction on the rider.
