Abstract
Handcycle is a transportation tool for individuals with lower limb disabilities. This study designed a hand cycle as a mode of transportation to facilitate the accessibility of persons with disabilities. The design of the handcycle will be designed on a prototype scale. It referred to recumbent and synchronous frame geometry types for arm crank set up to do finite element analysis studies using Autodesk Fusion 360 software to find the value of the strength of the handcycle frame design. Frame dimensions based on anthropometric data. Designed a decent frame at 160 kg loading with a critical value of 330 MPa and became a reference for the handcycle production process.
