Daniel Rudge made numerous innovation. It was in 1878 that he took out British patent 526 for his famous adjustable ball bearings. These bearinbs were fitted to his bicycle and materially improved their efficiency. Rudge's cycles soon gained a reputation locally for fast starts at races and thus became extremely popular. As a result of this success, Rudge machines were often handicapped 20-30 yards (18 to 27 meters) behind the other racers.
