| these are handlebars. handlebars are very important because they are the piece that connects to your frame so you can steer while riding. they also distribute over 35% of your balance.

these are pedals. pedals are an important part of a bike because their what you stand on while you riding or just sitting down of your seat. pedals can come in a lot of different styles, colors, and shapes. such as platforms and clips |
| these are grips. grips are not 100% necessary but they sure do help not to slip off of you handlebars. grips are usually made from rubber. I cant really recommend a good company for grips because anything that gives you traction is good |
