Major Taylor

He was one of the greatest professional bike racer.

Why do road bikes have thin tires  A road bike typically has narrow, smooth high pressure tires that minimize contact with road to produce the least rolling resistance possible.

What are the best materials for a bike frame?  The best materials and frames for a bike are steel, all steel have the same inherent stiffness and weight, regardless of the strength reynoids 853 is no stiff than 1010 (mild steel).

Major Taylor  The bicycle is a tremendously efficient means of transportation. In fact cycling is more efficient than any of the methods of traveling including walking.

Major Taylor The parts of a bicycle system are the wheel, drivers, gear, frames, materials, brakes, steering, pedals, and the chain.
