  2. Lift-off oversteer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lift-off_oversteer

    Lift-off oversteer (also known as trailing-throttle oversteer, throttle off oversteer, or lift-throttle oversteer) is a form of sudden oversteer.While cornering, a driver who closes the throttle (by lifting a foot off the accelerator, hence the name), usually at a high speed, can cause such sudden deceleration that the vertical load on the tires shifts from rear to front, in a process called ...

  3. Bicycle and motorcycle dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicycle_and_motorcycle...

    One documented example of someone successfully riding a rear-wheel steering bicycle is that of L. H. Laiterman at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, on a specially designed recumbent bike. [28] The difficulty is that turning left, accomplished by turning the rear wheel to the right, initially moves the center of mass to the right, and vice ...

  4. Slip angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slip_angle

    The ratios between the slip angles of the front and rear axles (a function of the slip angles of the front and rear tires respectively) will determine the vehicle's behavior in a given turn. If the ratio of front to rear slip angles is greater than 1:1, the vehicle will tend to understeer, while a ratio of less than 1:1 will produce oversteer. [2]

    Indicator: a turn signal; Inner tube: a bladder that contains air to inflate a tire. Has a Schrader, "Woods"/"Dunlop" or Presta valve for inflation and deflation; Jockey wheel or Pulley wheel: one of two small sprockets of the rear derailleur that guides the chain; Kickstand: a folding attachment used for assisting a bicycle to stand up on its ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicycle_tire

    A clincher bicycle tire mounted on a wheel A cross section of a clincher tire with a puncture-preventing layer (in blue) between the casing and the tread An inner tube rolled up for storage or to be carried as a spare. A bicycle tire is a tire that fits on the wheel of a bicycle or similar vehicle.

  7. Fishtailing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fishtailing

    During fishtailing, [2] the rear end of the car skids to one side, which must be offset by the driver counter-steering, which is turning the front wheels in the same direction as the skid, (e.g. left if the rear swings left) [1] and reducing engine power. Over-correction will result in a skid in the opposite direction; hence the name.

  8. Swing axle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swing_axle

    Change in camber due to cornering forces can cause loss of rear-wheel adhesion leading to oversteer—a dynamically unstable condition that can cause a vehicle to spin. This is an especially severe problem when a swing axle is used in a rear-engine design, because of the greater side-g forces on the rear wheels from the mass of the engine.

  9. Tire uniformity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire_uniformity

    Tire uniformity refers to the dynamic mechanical properties of pneumatic tires as strictly defined by a set of measurement standards and test conditions accepted by global tire and car makers. These standards include the parameters of radial force variation , lateral force variation , conicity, ply steer, radial run-out , lateral run-out , and ...
