ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a cycle or an engine-driven vehicle which moves on a bearing surface and more particularly on a road. In the case of a motorcycle, the front steering wheel (20) is fitted with a first crown-shaped roller bearing (22) being comprised of an outer annular element (21) which supports the rim (19) and an interior annular element (23) which is connected to an arm (17). The arm carries at its front end a second crown-shaped roller bearing (24) of which the internal element is made integral by way of a lug (27) of the interior annular element (23) of the roller bearing (22) and of which the interior annular element (26) of bearing (24) is made integral with the arm (17). The device allows to transmit the steering forces at a point located as close as possible to the contact area between the tire (20) and the road.
