Hi Jim - I really liked this paper. Thanks very much for posting it. The only thing I see specifically limited to mountain bikes is the discussion of encountering rocks and other technical challenges on the trail. This seems to have at least some partial application if you are riding a trail somewhere (e.g., Mt Diablo).
I found the slides from the Mornieux and Korff studies particularly intriguing. They seem to buttress Grant's assertions about efficiency in the pedal stroke. Can't say that I agree with his choice of shoes - but that's probably due to my preference for snug shoes and skinny Tioga (Spyder and Surefoot 8) pedals.
