The Bearings was a Chicago cycling newspaper covering the American bicycle trade and sport, with reports on racing, road and track competition, repair-shop practice, business policy, and factory construction. Its pages tracked cycle-industry news from Chicago, New York, Philadelphia, Buffalo, Cincinnati, Toledo, Washington, Augusta, Toronto, London, and Puebla, Mexico. The publication mixed editorial commentary, patent notices, trade briefs, correspondence, and humorous cycling sketches. It served dealers, manufacturers, repairmen, and organized cyclists, presenting developments in rubber tires, bicycle mechanics, advertising, and the economics of the bicycle business across the United States and abroad.
