Wires that touch each other produce cross connections, short circuits, and fire hazards.
Gusset: plates added to the outsides of frame tubes to strengthen joints. These are more commonly seen on BMX and mountain bikes; Hanger: part of frame or an attachment to the frame to which the derailleur is attached (see Derailleur hanger) Handlebar: a lever attached, usually using an intermediary stem, to the steerer tube of the fork.
