Abstract: An integrally formed bearing free pedal includes a central axle and a pedal body. The pedal body has a rotation axis, and is provided with an axle bore formed along the rotation axis. The central axle has an installation portion and an opposite combination portion. The central axle and the pedal body are integrally molded. The combination portion is disposed in the axle bore. A rotation gap is formed between the periphery of the central axle and the axle bore, so as to allow the central axle to rotate with respect to the pedal body along the rotation axis. Thus, the pedal has no bearings and other related components, so as to be structurally simple, and the manufacturing cost is reduced.

Abstract: A foldable pedal includes a connection member, a shaft, a pedal body, and an engagement device. The connection member includes a first and a second connection ends along a first axis. The shaft includes a first and a second ends. The first end is pivotally connected with the second connection end along a second axis perpendicular to the first axis, so that the shaft pivots with respect to the connection member.

The bushing unit is disposed between the main body and the pedal axle.

Abstract: A ratchet hub using a magnetic force for restoration as disclosed has a freewheel unit and a ratchet ring thereof forming a unidirectional ratchet mechanism and a magnetic assembly using a magnetically repulsive force to normally make the freewheel unit and ratchet ring engage mutually and allow force transmission therebetween. Once a force disengaging the freewheel unit from the ratchet ring surpasses the magnetically repulsive force, the ratchet ring is pushed away from the freewheel unit. When the force disengaging the freewheel unit from the ratchet ring disappears, the magnetically repulsive force automatically and promptly returns the ratchet ring to engage with the freewheel unit again.

Abstract: A racing pedal for a track bicycle includes a pedal body, a clamping unit and a primary strap. The pedal body has a first end, a second end and an axle near the first end. The clamping unit is movably attached to the first end of the pedal body and pivotable against the axle between a clamping position for engaging a shoe cleat and a releasing position. The clamping unit has a pulling portion and a clamping portion wherein the pulling portion is farther from the second end of the pedal body than the clamping portion is, and when the clamping unit pivots on the axle, upward tilt of the pulling portion makes the clamping portion point downward. The primary strap is positioned in the pulling portion for being looped to receive the shoe.

Abstract: A set of angle-adjusting head parts includes upper and lower head parts respectively mounted on top and bottom ends of a bicycle's head tube holding a front fork stem. The upper head parts include an upper bearing cup having an axially extending oval slot and two retaining surfaces arranged parallelly with the major axis of the oval slot at laterals, an upper bearing having an eccentric slot for receiving the front fork stem and an eccentric seat for engaging into the oval slot, and an adjusting washer mounted in the upper bearing cup and movable along the minor axis of the oval slot and having a circular opening for receiving the upper bearing. Rotating the upper bearing forces the eccentric seat to stop against the retaining surfaces and synchronously move the adjusting washer along the major axis of the oval slot, thereby biasing the angle of the front fork stem.
