  • Patent number: 5301570
    Abstract: An apparatus for connecting an auxiliary handle to a handlebar of a bicycle includes a tubular member having a partition plate which divides the tubular member into a first section which clamps the handlebar and a second section which has a first engaging member. A cylindrical member has a first end inserted into the second section of the tubular member. The cylindrical member has a blind bore and a second engaging member which engages the first engaging member of the tubular member in order to prevent the cylindrical member and tubular member being rotated with respect to each other.
