  • Cyclisme
DEF

Pièce qui fait avancer le mécanisme de roulement de l'indicateur de vitesse sur une bicyclette de course.

OBS

«Driver» ayant le sens de «directeur, conducteur» et «roller» celui de «rouleau, cylindre», on peut supposer que «roller driver» désigne l'une des dents qui actionnent le «driving roller» ou «rouleau d'entraînement» d'un indicateur de vitesse. Certains préfèrent confondre le cylindre et ses dents et désigner la pièce par «galet d'entraînement» ou simplement «galet».
