Wheels

A wheel on a bicycle is specially designed. Matching bicycle tires are called a wheel set, especially in reference to a pair of performance-oriented wheels. A wheel is made of a rim that connects to the hub with spokes. Each spoke has a nut at its end, which is called a nipple. Dropouts connect bike wheels to the frame and fork.
