If you're new to Beyblade X, the terminology can be confusing. Especially the way the ratchets are named. 1-60? 5-80? What does it all mean?
To put it simply, The first number refers to the number of protrusions (or spikes that come out of the part), and the second number refers to the height of the Ratchet.
1-60 means the ratchet has 1 protrusion or spike (the huge sword), and 60 means it is 6.0mm height.
5-80 means the ratchet has 5 protrusions or spikes (like a pentagon, it has 5 sides poking out) and 80 means it is 8.0mm height.
The fundamental theorem of spinning tops dictate the lower the center of gravity, the longer a spinning top can spin. So in general, the lower the height, the better the ratchet. That is why 60 (the shortest height of the standard ratchet) is used the most. Of course there are exceptions where you would want to have a taller ratchet, but that's often rare edge cases.
As for the bits, they are letterized by the first letter of the bit, and if there is a letter in front of it, it refers to the alteration of the bit.
Good parts to remember:
R- Rush, O- Orb, K- Kick, T- Taper, H- Hexa, B- Ball, E- Elevate, W- Wedge
Letter in front altering the bit:
L: Low, EG: LR - Low Rush (a shorter bit than the rush bit) LO- Low Orb
H: High, EG: HT - High Taper (a taller bit than the Taper bit)
F: Free, EG: FB - Free Ball (A ball bit that can rotate freely) FF - Free Flat
G: Gear, EG: GB - Gear Ball (A ball bit that has gears extended all the way to the bottom of the bit) GF- Gear Flat, GR- Gear Rush
