Okay I have just been given a task to do on a sheet of paper and I am to get pictures and describe a name of a part of a bike, and one says what is a cone? I am not too sure, but is this what holds the wheel into place by the forks? And what is a dropout? I have'nt an idea :S Its probably noobie questions, but it would help :)

Cone? Id say like a hub cone? & as for the drop out, thats where your rear wheel sits , some have horizontal dropouts other standard.

Hopefully some more input will come in on this
