Bike gears work like levers. A set amount of effort can be turned into either a long and weak motion, or a short and strong motion.
Imagine opening a door by pushing either close to the hinges or close to the lock.
A short push by the hinge will make the door move a big distance, but you have to push hard
While if you push by the edge it'll be easy, but the door will only move a short distance.

To increase the ratio of distance propelled per pedaling revolution, a very large driven wheel was used.

If all you have is a bicycle you will have to keep on pedaling faster and faster.
It was a good idea. steering became easier when pedaling wasn't pushing the wheel back & forth, and it became easy to use a chain to get a better ratio between pedaling and speed.
A bicycle carries kinetic energy when it is in motion. The kinetic energy comes from the rider's pedaling efforts and is stored in the motion of the bicycle and rider.
you pedal. then with my right foot down i wheelie. then i start pedaling while in the wheelie. i hope it helps
The net force on a bicycle is zero when the forces pushing forward (such as pedaling and friction) are balanced by the forces resisting motion (such as air resistance and friction). This typically occurs when the bicycle is moving at a constant speed on a level surface.
In a bicycle, the energy transformation involves converting the chemical energy stored in the body into mechanical energy by pedaling. This mechanical energy is then transferred to the wheels, where it is further transformed into kinetic energy to propel the bicycle forward.
When you stop pedaling a bicycle, it gradually slows down due to several factors. Friction from the ground and air resistance act as opposing forces, gradually reducing the bike's speed. The bike's momentum also plays a role, as it takes time for the momentum to dissipate.
The applied forces on the bicycle would be balanced. The force applied by the rider in pedaling is equal and opposite to the forces of friction and air resistance acting on the bicycle. This results in a net force of zero, allowing the bicycle to move with constant velocity.
