bicycle wheel
Bike's rolling part
A bicycle wheel is the circular rotating component of a bicycle, consisting of a hub, spokes, rim, and tire.
The hub connects to the bicycle frame and allows the wheel to spin freely, while spokes radiate outward to support the rim where the tire mounts.
Bicycle wheels come in various sizes and configurations depending on the type of cycling—road bikes typically have narrow, lightweight wheels while mountain bikes use wider, sturdier ones.
I need to replace my bicycle wheel after hitting that pothole.
