Block
From WikiPedalia
- Short for freewheel block; cluster.
- "Brake block" is another term for a brake shoe or pad for rim brakes.
- A "block generator" is a combined generator/headlamp unit, designed to mount on the front fork. It has the advantage of not needing any wiring. Block generators are no longer generally available due to liability concerns. Since they mount to the fork blade, there exists a possibility that, if not properly secured, they could slip down and fall into the spokes, locking the front wheel and causing a crash.
- Block chain
