My Explanation: Knowing how Bicycles Work.

Knowing How a Bicycle Works

If you are new to bicycles a or you just want to know how a bicycle work, then I am going to tell you how it works. A bicycle is machine that is very fun and takes a lot of skill to ride. It has a very smart mechanism of making the bicycle move.

A bicycle is a self control machine. That means that the person who is riding the bicycle is making the machine move. The power comes from the legs. All you have to do is keep the circulation the bike going if you want to make it move. The rider puts their feet on the pedals and then pushes them in a circle. It then sends a message to the back wheel to make it turn. The pedals are attached to a circular piece of metal that has little pegs sticking out for chain to go on. Now the chain is that main thing that gets the bike moving. It is connected in a circle so it looks like a metal necklace. The chain goes onto the small pegs of the metal circle and locks onto them. Then the chain is connected to the back wheel which has another metal piece with pegs. So now the chain will be connected from the pedals to the back wheel. The pedals are connected to the seat which the person whoever is riding the bike has to sit on and push the pedals.

The next part of a bicycle is the back and front wheel. Now the back wheel of the bicycle is the only wheel that push the bike to move forward while the front wheel is for steering. The front

bar are very tricky so there is grip on them so the rider can get a grip of them. The handle bars are also a bit hard to steer with, so you need to get used to the handling of them. When you turn the handles, you have to turn it in a circle. So it is like you a mixing the inside of a bowl. It is different to steering in a vehicle. When you turn the handles it will turn the front wheel to make it turn the bike. You also have to hold the handle bars on the bicycle to keep the balance of the bicycle upright or else it will tip over.

The final piece of the bike I am going to talk about is the brakes. Brakes are installed on a bike because in case you want or need to stop. The brakes are placed on the handlebars so that it is easy for the rider to reach them. The handle of the brakes are like a trigger so when you pull them it will send a message through a coil wire down to the wheels of the bike. The brake which is attached to the wheel is the thing that stops the bike. When you activate the brake it will grapple onto the wheel stop it from moving. The back wheel brake is usually for a slow down brake and the front wheel is for an emergency brake to make a sudden stop to the bike. If you are new to bikes, it usually takes time and skill to get used to riding a bicycle. Also if you really practice and practice your skills on a bike you can do tricks on them.

I have now told you how a bike works. The main thing that makes the bike move is yourself. All the power comes from your arms and your legs. Also if you need to stop use the brakes. I think the bicycle is a very well designed.
