20 STEEL FRONT OR COASTER WHEEL 72 SPOKE 14G 3/8 AXLE SINGLE WALL CHROME.
- Size: 20 Inch: This refers to the diameter of the wheel. A 20-inch wheel is a common size used in many types of bicycles, including mountain bikes, cruisers, and some hybrid bikes. It's measured from the outer edge of the tire on one side of the wheel to the outer edge on the opposite side, passing through the center of the wheel.
- Width OD: 32mm: The "OD" stands for "Outer Diameter." This indicates the width of the rim from the outer edge to the outer edge. A width of 32mm is relatively wide and can accommodate wider tires, providing stability and traction, especially on rough terrain.
- Spoke: 72 14g: This specifies the number and gauge of the spokes used in the wheel. It has 72 spokes, each with a diameter of 14 gauge. Spokes are essential for distributing the weight of the rider and the bike evenly across the wheel, ensuring structural integrity and stability.
- Hub: Front 3/8 Axle: This refers to the type and size of the axle used in the front hub of the wheel. A 3/8 inch axle is a common size used in many bicycles. The front hub houses the bearings and connects the wheel to the bike's fork, allowing it to rotate smoothly.
- Hub: Coaster KT Steel 3/8 Axle: This indicates that the rear hub is a coaster brake hub, manufactured by KT. Coaster brake hubs are found on the rear wheel of bikes and are operated by pedaling backward to engage the brake. The 3/8 inch axle size matches that of the front hub.
- Wheel Style: Single Schrader/Valve: This describes the valve type used on the inner tube of the wheel. A Schrader valve is a common type of valve found on bicycle inner tubes and is similar to those used on car tires. It's easy to use and compatible with most air pumps.
- Material: Heavy-Duty Steel: This indicates that the wheel is constructed from heavy-duty steel, which provides strength and durability. Steel wheels are robust and able to withstand the rigors of various riding conditions, making them suitable for everyday use and rough terrain.
- Color: Chrome: The wheel is finished with a chrome plating, giving it a shiny and reflective surface. Chrome plating not only enhances the appearance of the wheel but also provides some resistance to corrosion and wear.
