Abstract: A bicycle including a frame that has a head tube, and a frame member that is elongated along a longitudinal axis. The bicycle also includes a receiver that is disposed in the frame member, and a battery pack that is coupled to the frame member and detachably connected to the receiver. The receiver has a tapered socket and a power connector encircled by the tapered socket. The battery pack has a tapered end cap that is insertable into the tapered socket along the longitudinal axis. The tapered end cap includes a battery connector disposed on an end of the battery pack. The tapered end cap is at least partially nested within the tapered socket along the longitudinal axis upon connection between the receiver and the battery pack, and the battery connector is electrically connected to the power connector upon nesting the tapered end cap in the tapered socket.

Abstract: With an arrangement for fitting a speed measuring device on a bicycle provision is made for at least one dropout end of a frame of the bicycle to comprise a constructional space for fitting at least one speed sensor and for a triggering element corresponding with the speed sensor in a triggering manner to be arranged on a component of the wheel fitted into the dropout end.

Abstract: A bicycle including a frame, a bottom bracket coupled to the frame and adapted to support a crankset, and a battery pack supported by the frame. The battery pack has a powered end cap with a tapered protrusion and a battery connector on an end of the tapered protrusion. The bicycle also includes a receiver supported by the frame and including a tapered socket in which the tapered protrusion is positioned. The tapered socket includes a power connector detachably coupled to the battery connector.

Abstract: A bicycle comprising front and rear wheels, a bicycle frame and front fork supported on the front and rear wheel, a handlebar coupled to the front fork, and a component mounting assembly. The component mounting assembly includes a base coupled to the handlebar, a first component (e.g., an electronic display) supported by the base, and a second component (e.g., a gear shift lever) supported by the base. The base can comprise a clamp member of a brake lever assembly, and a position of the base can be rotationally adjustable relative to the handlebar. In one embodiment, the base includes a curved mounting surface (e.g., a cylindrical surface) that supports the second component and facilitates adjustment of a position of the second component relative to the base. The base can further include an elongated opening through which a fastener is positioned to secure the second component to the base.

Abstract: A bicycle including a frame that has an elongated hollow frame member, a fork rotationally coupled to the frame, a wheel rotationally coupled to the fork, and a handlebar coupled to the fork for steering the wheel. The frame has an interior surface that defines a longitudinal groove with a groove width. The bicycle also includes a cable that is positioned in the longitudinal groove and that has a cable width less than the groove width.
