Selected
rotatably mounted
(You cannot be more specific than this and still be correct.) The author is not stating by what means the cylinder is rotatably mounted. The implication is a frictionless type of bearing, but it could be a simple oil bearing, an air bearing, etc. The bearing could be on the cylinder or on the surrounding structure.

Note from asker:
| Is it enough on its own, or would it be better to say "rotatably mounted in a bearing"? |
