   Shimano STI Dual Control shifter and brake lever: 1. Main lever 2. Release lever A. Pulling the main lever towards the rider applies the brake B. Pushing the main lever towards the center of the bike downshifts one, two or three gears depending on how far the lever is pushed (right hand shifter) or changes from a small chainring to a larger chainring (left hand shifter)

4. Electronic gear-shifting system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_gear-shifting...

   Electronic front derailleur (Shimano Di2) An electronic gear-shifting system is a method of changing gears on a bicycle, which enables riders to shift with electronic switches instead of using conventional control levers and mechanical cables.

5. Bottom bracket - Wikipedia

   There are other instances where third-party adapters can be used to fit a crankset made for one standard into another. For example, a Shimano (two-piece Hollowtech II 24 mm outer diameter spindle) road crankset can fit into a BB30 bottom bracket shell (42 mm inner diameter) using aftermarket adapters.

6. Derailleur - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derailleur

   High normal or top normal rear derailleurs return the chain to the smallest sprocket on the cassette when no cable tension is applied. [15] This is the regular pattern used on most Shimano mountain, all Shimano road, and all SRAM and Campagnolo derailleurs. In this condition, spring pressure takes care of the easier change to smaller sprockets.

8. Belt-driven bicycle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belt-driven_bicycle

   Belt-driven bicycles and their repair or replacement parts are scarcer at shops than bicycles with conventional chain. Front and rear pulleys or sprockets must be well aligned to avoid excessive friction and wear. A chain is more flexible in this respect. [8] Compared to a chain, belts are typically run at a much higher tension.

9. Headset (bicycle part) - Wikipedia

   In order to provide a cable stop for front cantilever brakes or centerpull brakes, a hanger may be incorporated into the headset, either as part of the washer between the top race and the lock nut in the case of threaded headsets, or as part of a spacer between the top race and the stem in the case of threadless headsets.
