[[File:Biopacesticker.jpg|left|thumb|Biopace Aufkleber]]Biopace is a patented non-round chainwheel design made and licensed by Shimano. To a casual glance, Biopace chainwheels resemble elliptical chainwheels, but on closer examination they turn out to be the opposite of the classical elliptical design. The product of extensive research and computer-aided design, Biopace chainwheels have the small radius engaged when the cranks are horizontal, the large when they are vertical. This is because the Biopace design is based on a dynamic analysis of the motion and momentum of moving cranks and legs, unlike the static, geometric analysis that produced classical ellipticals.
[[File:Biopacesticker.jpg|left|thumb|Biopace Aufkleber]][[Biopace]] sind patentierte unrunde Kettenblätter, deren Design von [[Shimano]] stammt und von Shimano hergestellt und lizensiert wurde. Oberflächlich betrachtet ähneln Biopace Kettenblätter elliptischen Kettenblättern (siehe oben). Bei näherer Betrachtung ist das Design gegensätzlich zu klassischen elliptischen Kettenblättern. Als Produkt aus extensiver Forschung und CAD Prozessen ist der kleinere Radius bei horizontaler und der große Radius bei vertikaler Kurbelstelleung erreicht. Das wurde so umgesetzt, weil das Biopace Design sich an dynamischer Analyse der Bewegung und dem Impuls sich bewegender Kurbeln und Beine orientiert. Das ist anders als die statische geometrische Analyse, die zur Entwicklung klassischer elliptischer Kettenblätter führte.


The theory is that during the power stroke, when the cranks are more or less horizontal, you are using the power of your legs to accelerate your feet, which get going quite fast in the lower gear provided for that part of the stroke. The momentum of your feet then carries the pedals through the "dead spot" when the cranks are near vertical. Since the rider doesn't push as hard during the power phase of the stroke, and motion is slower when the leg is changing direction, the Biopace design is gentler on the knees than even round chainwheels.
