2. Cyclocomputer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclocomputer

   In 1895, Curtis H. Veeder invented the Cyclometer. [1] [2] [3] The Cyclometer was a simple mechanical device that counted the number of rotations of a bicycle wheel.[4] [5] A cable transmitted the number of rotations of the wheel to an analog odometer visible to the rider, which converted the wheel rotations into the number of miles traveled according to a predetermined formula.

3. Odometer - Wikipedia

   An electronic odometer (below speedometer) with digital display showing 91,308 miles (146,946 km) from a Jeep Grand Cherokee (WJ). An odometer or odograph is an instrument used for measuring the distance traveled by a vehicle, such as a bicycle or car.

4. Speedometer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speedometer

   A speedometer showing mph and km/h along with an odometer and a separate "trip" odometer (both showing distance traveled in miles) The amended Road Vehicles (Construction and Use) Regulations 1986 permits the use of speedometers that meet either the requirements of EC Council Directive 75/443 (as amended by Directive 97/39) or UNECE Regulation 39.

5. Cadence (cycling) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cadence_(cycling)

   Cadence can be measured via various types of sensors, for example a simple reed switch and a magnet which detects one revolution each time the crank arm passes a point on the frame, or more advanced sensors based on a force sensor (e.g. pedals), torque sensor (e.g. crank arms) or other types of cycling power sensors.

7. Bicycle performance - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicycle_performance

   Bicycle performance is measurable performance such as energy efficiency that affect how effective a bicycle is. Bicycles are extraordinarily efficient machines; in terms of the amount of energy a person must expend to travel a given distance, cycling is calculated to be the most efficient self-powered means of transportation .
