  • Patent number: 5158515
    Abstract: An entertaining exercise apparatus that allows a user to be entertained while performing a muscular and aerobic exercise. The apparatus consists of a circular tubular structure (1) that has attached to its upper surface a crankset (4) having a pair of pedals that are operated by the user sitting on a seat (6). In front of the seat is located a fork (11) that includes an adjustable handlebar (13). To the lower surface of the tubular structure is located a primary wheel (18) and a pair of secondary wheels (19). The primary wheel is rotated by a rotating shaft (16) that is made to rotate by a chain (17) that is operated by the pedal driven crankset (4). The three wheels are located equidistant from each other so that the apparatus can rotate or spin on its vertical axis without any horizontal movement. The apparatus is designed to be easily disassembled so that it can be conveniently stored and transported.
