The Bearings was a Chicago-based weekly cycling journal published from 1892 to 1897, serving both cycling enthusiasts and the trade across the United States. Each issue blended editorial commentary, racing results, club news, patent notices, and trade advertising with humour and short sketches. One of the leading Midwestern cycling publications during the bicycle boom of the 1890s, it covered developments in the American cycle industry, League of American Wheelmen affairs, and racing and touring news from around the country and internationally.
