Abstract: Bicycle component and method for assembling a bicycle component comprising several units of which one unit is configured as a fixed unit and at least one unit, as a rotary unit. A fixed unit forms the hub axle and a rotary unit is configured as a hub body. The hub body is provided with a spoke socket for fastening spokes and is rotatably supported relative to the hub axle by means of at least one bearing. At least one separate sealing cap fastened at one of the several units is provided at which a sealed through opening for a unit is provided which unit is rotatable relative to the hub body.

Abstract: A hub and wheel equipped therewith includes a hub body and an axle rotatably receiving the hub body, the hub body being provided with at least one circumferential hub flanges which serve for accommodation and defined orientation of a multitude of spokes. Each of the spokes has a spoke body and a flattened spoke head. The hub flange is configured to fix the flattened spoke head to only one axial side wall.

Abstract: A hub with a hub body, the hub body having two end units and a tubular center part, and the center part being disposed between, and received at, the end units. At least one end unit includes a tubular inserting portion onto which the center part having a tubular slip-on portion is pushed. The inserting portion and the slip-on portion overlap in an overlapping region.

Abstract: A quick release for bicycles comprising a pull rod extending in the axial direction, an end element at a first end of the pull rod, a clamping element at the second end of the pull rod, and a tensioning device for tensioning the clamping element. The tensioning device comprises a lever for applying the clamping force and a tensioning sleeve with a transmitter portion for transmitting the clamping force to an engaging portion of the clamping element. The lever is positioned to be movable relative to the clamping element in the axial direction of the pull rod and against the biasing force of a biasing spring is movable outwardly in the axial direction of the pull rod from an engaged position to a turn position. In the turn position an angular position of the lever can be set independently of the state of tensioning.

Abstract: A wheel for a bicycle including a rim and having a hub including a fixed hub axle and a hub body rotatably mounted relative to the hub axle, and having a plurality of spokes disposed between the hub body and the rim to non-rotatably connect the rim with the hub body. The rim includes two rim flanks, a rim well and a rim base with spoke holes, at which the spokes are received. A separate holding member is disposed in each spoke hole, which together with a spoke nipple received at the holding member can be passed through the spoke hole in a tilted position, while in a tilted-back position it contacts the rim and is received therein to be tension-proof so as to fix the spoke to the rim.

Abstract: A bicycle component with a wheel mount at which a wheel with a hub can be received, with the wheel mount including two tube components provided with a mounting device at each of its end portions. At the mounting device of at least one tube component a bushing device is arranged to be exchangeable and to be suitable and intended to receive and support a hub.

Abstract: A hub and a wheel equipped with such a hub for bicycles, wherein the hub includes a fixed hub axle and a hub body rotatably mounted relative to fixed hub axle through two bearings. The hub body includes a hub sleeve and two separate hub flanges positioned on the hub sleeve at which spokes are disposed to connect the hub body with a rim. The hub flanges are fastened to the hub sleeve by connecting members positioned substantially perpendicular to the hub axle.

Abstract: A hub, in particular for bicycles having a hub shell and two bearings received therein on bearing seats for rotatably supporting relative to a through axle, wherein the two bearings are retained at a defined axial distance by means of a sleeve. A radial spacer device is provided to reduce radial play of the sleeve in the hub shell and to facilitate inserting the through axle.

Abstract: A bicycle component with a wheel mount at which a wheel with a hub can be received. with the wheel mount including two tube components provided with a mounting device at each of its end portions. At the mounting device of at least one tube component a bushing device is arranged to be exchangeable and to be suitable and intended to receive and support a hub.

Abstract: A wheel for a bicycle comprising a rim and having a hub comprising a fixed hub axle and a hub body rotatably mounted relative to the hub axle, and having a plurality of spokes disposed between the hub body and the rim to non-rotatably connect the rim with the hub body. The rim comprises two rim flanks, a rim well and a rim base with spoke holes, at which the spokes are received. A separate holding member is disposed in each spoke hole, which together with a spoke nipple received at the holding member can be passed through the spoke hole in a tilted position, while in a tilted-back position it contacts the rim and is received therein to be tension-proof so as to fix the spoke to the rim. The spoke holes comprise an elongated shape in the peripheral direction of the wheel and the holding member and the spoke nipple are configured so as to allow an angularly variable orientation of the spoke relative to the rim.
