Brakes are an essential part of a bike. The two most common types are disc brakes and V-brakes. Disc brakes are more effective, but need to be maintained more often, while V-brakes are easy to maintain and last longer. Other braking systems include drum brakes or a coaster brake (in children's bikes).
Serves to attach the front wheel and brake.

Generally speaking, the more kilometers per year you ride, the higher quality should the components of your bike be. Component sets are divided into three main categories.
Basic components set - more affordable bikes have basic components of good quality
Advanced components set - bikes have high quality components, along with some accessories (i.e. mudguards and carriers on trekking bikes, etc.)
Top components set - bikes with highest quality components and accessories.
Tires serve to protect the tube inside and they optimize the riding attributes of your bike, both on the road and in terrain. Mountain bike tires are wide and have a complex pattern that allows for movement on difficult terrain. Road bike tires, on the other hand, have a shallow pattern and are thin and smooth.
Tires serve as a protection of the inner tube and optimalize the riding qualities of a bike in terrain and on the road. Mountain bike tires are wide and have complex patterns, allowing for riding through hard terrain. Road bikes on the other hand have thin and smooth tires with only a shallow pattern.
Levers or grip shifters change the revolving ratio in the relation of the front sprocket wheel (crankset) and the rear sprocket wheel (cassette) with the help of the front and rear derailleur.
Gear shifting on the chainring.
Gear shifting on the rear wheel.
A metal circle with a U-shaped profile. It creates space for the inner tube and tire. Bikes designed for professional use and therefore more demanding riding style have double-walled rims. Such rims provide higher durability and better safety. Rims for regular bikes are usually made of dural, rims for special bikes can be made of special alloys or composites.
