A gear cycle, also known as a geared bicycle or simply a bike, is a type of bicycle equipped with gears, enabling the rider to adjust the mechanical advantage of pedaling to suit different terrains, speeds, and conditions. Gears consist of toothed wheels, or sprockets, connected by a chain. By shifting gears, riders can change the ratio of rotations between the pedals and the wheels, making it easier to pedal uphill or allowing for higher speeds on flat terrain.
Geared bicycles are commonly used for various purposes including commuting, recreation, exercise, and competitive sports such as road cycling, mountain biking, and cyclocross. They come in different configurations and designs tailored to specific riding styles and preferences.
