The bicycle or bike is a human-powered vehicle with two wheels arranged in a tandem arrangement. It is propelled by pedaling, and the rider sits on a saddle while controlling the front wheel with handlebars. People use bicycles for transportation, exercise, and leisure, and they also use them for commuting. In a variety of sports, including road racing and mountain biking, bicycles are used.
