Abstract: In a wheeled cycle, including a bicycle, having an opposing pair of cranks with pedals for engagement by the feet of a rider for manual propulsion, a tool-free pedal-to-crank mounting assembly and method is provided for mounting the pedal to the crank with an insertion motion requiring no tools. Disassembly desirably requires a tool.
Abstract: In a bicycle having a frame supporting a rear wheel axle, a tool-free trainingwheel-to-frame mounting assembly and method is provided for mounting a trainingwheel to the frame with an insertion motion requiring no tools. Disassembly desirably requires a tool.
Abstract: In a wheeled cycle, including a bicycle, having a headtube supporting a front handlebar stem and front wheel fork yoke, a tool-free stem-to-yoke mounting assembly and method is provided for mounting the front handlebar stem to the front wheel fork yoke in mating relation rotationally supported in the headtube, the tool-free stem-to-yoke mounting assembly mounting the stem to the yoke within the headtube with an insertion motion requiring no tools. Disassembly desirably requires a tool.
Abstract: In a tricycle having a longitudinally extending frame supporting a front wheel, a pair of laterally spaced rear wheels, and a seat for a rider, a protective footwell is removably mounted to the tricycle and supports the feet of the rider in stroller mode.
Abstract: In cycles, including tricycles, having a longitudinally extending frame supporting a front wheel and a subframe including a rear axle supporting a pair of laterally spaced rear wheels, and supporting a seat for a rider, and having a headtube comprising a tubular member extending axially along a steering axis, a front handlebar stem comprising a tubular member extending axially downwardly into the headtube, and a front wheel fork yoke comprising a tubular member extending axially upwardly into the headtube, simplified quick tool-free mounting assemblies are provided, including a tool-free frame-to-subframe mounting assembly mounting the frame to the subframe with an insertion motion requiring no tools, a tool-free seat-to-frame mounting assembly removably and adjustably mounting the seat to the frame with an insertion motion along the direction of travel of the cycle and requiring no tools, and a tool-free stem-to-yoke mounting assembly mounting the stem to the yoke with an insertion motion requiring no tools.
Abstract: The rotatable and mountable light assembly of the present invention includes a base member, the base member pivotally connected to a clamping member, the clamping member comprising a means to removably secure the base member to a bar; a lamp holding member releasably secured to the base member, the lamp holding member comprising a lamp receiving space, the lamp receiving space being of sufficient space to receive at least one individual lamp. The lamp holding member is capable of altering its orientation with regard to the base member such that the orientation of the lamp holding member vis-à-vis the clamping member may be altered; the single lamp residing in a portion of the receiving space, the lamp comprising a tens and a means to illuminate; and a means to provide power to the lamp.
