Bicycle Wheel Bearing Rolling Resistance. This has been largely pushed by tyre and wheel manufacturers heading towards tubeless designs on the premise that a wider tyre has lower rolling resistance. That is not all the energy needed for deformation or movement of the wheel roadbed etc is recovered when the pressure is removed.

The drum is covered with diamond plate to simulate an average road surface. They are used as headset steering bearings on some older bicycles. Rolling resistance sometimes called rolling friction or rolling drag is the force resisting the motion when a body such as a ball tire or wheel rolls on a surface.

Bicycle rolling resistance publishes detailed reviews and articles about mountain bike and road bike tires which have been tested on our rolling resistance roller.

Measurements are taken with an arduino microcontroller equipped with custom software and hardware.
