Depending on context:
Engine - A good engine on a bad bike beats a bad engine on almost any bike
Wheels - Without them we'd be walking
Chain - Without it we'd be taking headers a lot more often, or going a lot slower
Wheels - Without them we'd be walking
Pneumatic tires - Without them the riding experience would be a lot bumpier and our road choices would be limited
Spokes - Without them we'd be riding smaller, heavier wagon-style wheels
Cranks - Otherwise we'd be riding Draisines if we rode at all
