Cassette needs diisambiguating.
Is there someone who can submit a picture indicating the parts incl. reference numbers ? This would be great. Nyxos, 05.09.2003
I changed the Cassette and Lug links to (nonexistent) pages that reference bicycle parts. I don't know exactly what cassettes or lugs are, but surely in this context they have nothing to do with home audio recording or Irish mythology.Skoosh02:20, 13 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
I changed the list into a definition list. Some of the articles--jockey wheel in particular--should be merged into the article of which they're a part of, or maybe made into redirects. Other than that, I filled in a few definitions. Leave the articles with major things (derailleur gears, bottom bracket, headset, etc.) with links as well as a short definition. As to whether the definitions should be complete sentences, just keep it consistent. --Christopherlin03:06, 8 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Wow, this page sure has a lot of parts covered. But it would be more useful if there was a labelled diagram. --Louiechefei2884888800:34, 10 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
A lot of these parts are defined in terms of other parts, creating a cyclic dependency. If you don't know any parts at all, you will be lost. :-( --Rewguy02:29, 21 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I have to second "the parts defined in terms of other parts" as problematic, but only in relation to namespace assignment. If systems and major parts of the bicycle, such as my suggestedCup and cone bearing system (having to do with hubs) are described, such ambiguity will be remedied. I noticed, for instance "dustcap" is defined in the name space as the piece that I call a "valve cap." I always understood the dustcap to be part of the Cup and cone bearing system, preventing dust from entering the hubs. If each small part gets a namespace, I suppose we will have to have a disambiguity page, especially if the author ofdustcap feel the need to stick it. Somehow I feel that dustcap can be defined both ways, following a colon, seperated by a semicolon -- without either denotation being assigned a namespace.Kate (talk)08:00, 23 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Also known as "sealed bearings." Traditionally have longer life and lower maintenance than other bearings.

Is there a name for that sort of circular plastic shield that prevents the chain from jumping beyond the first-gear sprocket & getting caught between the sprocket & the wheel hub? Maybe that shield should be included in this bike-part article. The shield seems to typically be around the size of a saucer.Bo99 (talk)23:58, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
