Tyre Spoke Hub Rim Spoke Nipple Let us consider a bicycle wheel spinning at a rate of 50 revolutions per minute (rpm)--or 100 s-1.-about its center. A good approximation for the wheel is that all its mass is at the edge, thus we can say that the moment of inertia is given by I = MR. Ignoring the mass of the spokes, the rim has a mass of 2 kg and a radius of 75 cm. The angular momentum L is O 6.9 kg - m² /s O 5.9 kg - m² /s O 7.8 kg - m2 /s O 8.5 kg · m² /s
