Usually pneumatic. A tubular tire is glued to the wheel rim; most tires use tubes, but tubeless tires and rims are increasingly common; Toe clips: a metal or plastic cage attached to a pedal. Usually has an adjustment strap. Secures foot to pedal for increased control and more effective transfer of power from foot to drive chain
Green pedals in the floor of a Polikarpov I-15. A rudder pedal is a foot-operated aircraft flight control interface for controlling the rudder of an aircraft. [1] [2] The usual set-up in modern aircraft is that each pilot has a pedal set consisting of a pair of pedals, with one pedal for each foot. Each right and left pedal works together so ...
A typical ETC system consists of three major components: (i) an accelerator pedal module (ideally with two or more independent sensors), (ii) a throttle valve that can be opened and closed by an electric motor (sometimes referred to as an electric or electronic throttle body (ETB)), and (iii) a powertrain or engine control module (PCM or ECM).

The anti-torque pedals are located in the same place as the rudder pedals in an airplane, and serve a similar purpose—they control the direction that the nose of the aircraft points. Applying the pedal in a given direction changes the tail rotor blade pitch, increasing or reducing tail rotor thrust and making the nose yaw in the direction of ...

Rackmount effects units are controlled by knobs, switches or buttons on their front panel, and often remote-controllable by a MIDI digital control interface or pedal-style foot controller. [17] Rackmount effects units are most commonly used in recording studios and front of house live sound mixing situations. Musicians may use them in place of ...
In general, based on the application, a pneumatic cylinder is usually a single-acting cylinder, where there is a single port in the cylinder. In single-acting cylinders, the port extends using compressed air and retracts using an open coiled spring. In double-acting cylinders, two ports both extend and retract using compressed air.
