Homework Statement


I have models of scooter with some flawes made on purpos. I must improve this, and point all flaws.

Homework Equations


Lack of equations.

The Attempt at a Solution


In my opinion, we do not have bearings here. However I think it's not just one problem.

Welcome to the PF. :smile:

What does the 2nd drawing represent?

Also, please try a bit more to find and post some flaws. After you can post 3-4 more (if there are that many), we may be able to offer some hints or ask some questions. It's important for you to show lots of effort on your schoolwork problems here at the PF. Thanks.
