Abstract: A bearing retaining element for bicycle headset bearings includes a basic element which, in a mounted state, at least partly surrounds a steerer tube. The basic element retains a clamping element which also, in the mounted state, at least partly surrounds the steerer tube. Further, a clamping member in particular configured as a grub screw is provided which acts upon the clamping element for clampingly fixing the clamping element to the steerer tube.

Abstract: A racing bicycle handlebar includes a transverse support connected to a handlebar stem or integrally formed therewith. Two arcuate lower handle elements are connected to the transverse support. The connection is established by a connecting element respectively arranged between the transverse support and the respective handle element. In addition to clamping areas for fastening brake lever units, the connecting elements also includes gripping areas. The gripping areas are arranged between the clamping areas and the transverse support in order to improve ergonomics or prevent pressure marks, wherein in particular an upper side is provided with a smaller curvature or flattening, respectively.

Abstract: A clamping element for fastening bicycle components, in particular brake/gearshift units, to bicycle handlebars, such as a racing bicycle handlebar, includes a first clamping part and a second clamping part. The first clamping part serves to be connected with the bicycle component, e.g. by a screw. The second clamping part is releasably connected with the first clamping part. Thereby, it is possible to configure the clamping element such that the clamping element is also suited for non-round handlebars and/or can be arranged in closed regions of a handlebar.
