i think you need the most friction in your feet and hands
It's hard to say where you'd need the mostfriction, as riding a bike requires several thingsto work together. And in each of those places you need enough friction.
-you can't ride if tires will slip too badly on the ride surface
-you can't ride if tires will slip too badly on the rims
-you can't ride if wheels won't stay in the frame/fork
-you can't ride if you can't stay on the bike

∙ 11y agoYou'd need it pretty much everywhere apart from the bearings. The grips need friction so that your hands don't slip. The pedals need friction so that your feet don't slip. The seat need a bit of friction too. The rims need a bit of friction to prevent the tires from slipping. The tires needs lots of friction not to slip against the ground. the brakes need plenty of friction to be able to slow you down.
