2. Ball bearing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ball_bearing

   While ceramic hybrid bearings use ceramic balls in place of steel ones, they are constructed with steel inner and outer rings; hence the hybrid designation. While the ceramic material itself is stronger than steel, it is also stiffer, which results in increased stresses on the rings, and hence decreased load capacity.

3. Motorcycle components - Wikipedia

   A motorcycle fork is the portion of a motorcycle that holds the front wheel and allows one to steer. For handling, the front fork is the most critical part of a motorcycle. The combination of rake and trail determines how stable the motorcycle is. The 'fork' on a motorcycle consists of multiple components.

4. Motorcycle braking systems - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motorcycle_braking_systems

   Aprilia Tuono R front brakes have two floating stainless steel discs with sintered pads, and radially mounted, four-piston calipers. Motorcycle braking systems have varied throughout time, as motorcycles evolved from bicycles with an engine attached, to the 220 mph (350 km/h) prototype motorcycles seen racing in MotoGP. Most systems work by ...

5. Rolling-element bearing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling-element_bearing

   The updated model offers life calculations also for hybrid bearings, i.e. bearings with steel rings and ceramic (silicon nitride) rolling elements. [21] [22] Even if the 2019 GBLM release was primarily developed to realistically determine the working life of hybrid bearings, the concept can also be used for other products and failure modes.

6. Bearing (mechanical) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bearing_(mechanical)

   A ball bearing. A bearing is a machine element that constrains relative motion to only the desired motion and reduces friction between moving parts.The design of the bearing may, for example, provide for free linear movement of the moving part or for free rotation around a fixed axis; or, it may prevent a motion by controlling the vectors of normal forces that bear on the moving parts.

7. Brake pad - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brake_pad

   The concept of brake pads or disc brakes as an alternative to drum brakes had been around at least as early as a patent by F. W. Lanchester in 1902. [2] However, due to high cost and inefficiencies compared to drum brakes they were not commonly implemented until after World War II. [3]
