    The fork offset is the perpendicular distance from the steering axis to the center of the front wheel. In bicycles, fork offset is also called fork rake. Road racing bicycle forks have an offset of 40–50 mm (1.6–2.0 in). [7]

  3. Bicycle fork - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicycle_fork

    Road racing bicycle forks have an offset of 40–55 mm. [2] For touring bicycles and other designs, the frame's head angle and wheel size must be taken into account when determining offset, and there is a narrow range of acceptable offsets to give good handling characteristics. The general rule is that a slacker head angle requires a fork with ...

  4. Hallade method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hallade_method

    The Hallade method, devised by Frenchman Emile Hallade, is a method used in track geometry for surveying, designing and setting out curves in railway track. [1] It involves measuring the offset of a string line from the outside of a curve at the central point of a chord. In reality, string is too thick to provide a clear reading and breaks ...

    Bike steering axis angle, fork offset, and trail. A factor that influences how easy or difficult a bike will be to ride is trail, the distance by which the front wheel ground contact point trails behind the steering axis ground contact point. The steering axis is the axis about which the entire steering mechanism (fork, handlebars, front wheel ...

    1. "Trail is a function of head angle, fork offset or rake, and wheel size." tends to lead to confusion because of the use of "rake". I suggest that the word either be removed or that the sentence be changed to "On bicycles trail is a function of head angle, fork offset or rake, and wheel size." Done. 2.

  7. Fork end - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fork_end

    A fork end, [1] fork-end, [1] or forkend [2] is a slot in a bicycle frame or bicycle fork where the axle of a bicycle wheel is attached. A dropout is a type of fork end [3] that allows the rear wheel to be removed without first derailing the chain. Track bicycle frames have track fork ends, on which the opening faces rearwards. Because they do ...

  8. Tramway track - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tramway_track

    Tramway track is used on tramways or light rail operations. As with standard rail tracks, tram tracks have two parallel steel rails, the distance between the heads of the rails being the track gauge. When there is no need for pedestrians or road vehicles to traverse the track, conventional flat-bottom rail is used.

  9. Protected intersection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protected_intersection

    Cyclists ideally have a protected cycle track on the approach to the intersection, separated by a concrete median with splay curbs if possible, and have a protected bicycle lane width of at least 2 meters if possible (one way). In the Netherlands, most one way cycle paths are at least 2.5 meters wide. [19]
