   Also, if rear brakes are used (essential where a freewheel is used) brake pads may need to be adjusted. The ISO threading for freewheels (Single or Multiple Speed) is the same as for track/fixed cogs. A standard single-speed BMX style freewheel can be used on the track threads of the hub. Because of the stepped down lock ring threads, not as ...

   The Flying Pigeon PA-02, a single-speed utility bicycle, is the most produced bicycle model in history. A single-speed bicycle is a type of bicycle with a single gear ratio. These bicycles are without derailleur gears, hub gearing or other methods for varying the gear ratio of the bicycle.

4. Fixed-gear bicycle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixed-gear_bicycle

   As a general rule, fixed-gear bicycles are single-speed. A derailleur for gear selection would introduce chain slack, which would interfere with braking. Gear selection can, however, be accomplished with the use of an internally geared hub. For example, a Sturmey-Archer fixed-gear three-speed hub is a fixed-gear multi-speed arrangement. Most ...

   Single-speed mountain bike. A single-speed bicycle is a type of bicycle with a single gear ratio and a freewheel mechanism. These bicycles are without derailleur gears, hub gearing or other methods for varying the gear ratio of the bicycle. Adult single-speed bicycles typically have a gear ratio of between 55 and 75 gear inches, depending on ...

6. Bicycle drivetrain systems - Wikipedia

   Major changes in bicycle form have often been initiated or accompanied by advances in drivetrain systems. Several early drivetrains used straight-cut gears that meshed directly with each other outside of the hub. [1] [2] Some bicycles have used a double-sided rear wheel, with different-sized sprockets on each side. To change gears, the rider ...

9. Bicycle wheel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicycle_wheel

   Since the 1980s, bicycles have adopted standard axle spacing: the hubs of front wheels are generally 100 mm wide fork spacing, road wheels with freehubs generally have a 130 mm wide rear wheel hub. Mountain bikes have adopted a 135 mm rear hub width, [4] which allows clearance to mount a brake disc on the hub or to decrease the wheel dish for a ...
