French term or phrase: excentrique ou excentrée??
Il s'agit d'une vis. Je trouve les occurences suivantes:
vis à excentrique
vis excentrique
et
vis excentrée

Pour moi, c'est du chinois et de nombreux sites sont des traductions. A qui se fier??

excentrique ou excentrée??
excentrique c'est le type de vis


Explanation:
excentrée ce serait son positionnement

L'excentrique est l'un des composants essentiels du tandem.

Les néophytes pensent que l'excentrique c'est celui qui pédale assis sur un tandem (les sots). En fait l'excentrique est la pièce cylindrique qui maintient le boitier du pédalier avant. L'axe du pédalier ne correspond pas à l'axe du cylindre et voilà pourquoi on appelle cette pièce un excentrique.

A noter que l'excentrique est l'une de ces rares pièces spécifiques au tandem
