2. Rolling resistance - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_resistance

   Rolling resistance, sometimes called rolling friction or rolling drag, is the force resisting the motion when a body (such as a ball, tire, or wheel) rolls on a surface. It is mainly caused by non-elastic effects; that is, not all the energy needed for deformation (or movement) of the wheel, roadbed, etc., is recovered when the pressure is removed.

7. Bicycle performance - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicycle_performance

   By calculating the power requirements for moving a bike and rider, one can evaluate the relative energy costs of air resistance, rolling resistance, slope resistance and acceleration. There are well-known equations that give the power required to overcome the various resistances mainly as a function of speed:
