  • Patent number: 6662680
    Abstract: A system that adds a secondary handlebar to a bicycle that already is fitted with a primary set of handlebars. The system includes a secondary handlebar. The secondary handlebar is supported by a neck element. The neck element is attached to the steering post of the bicycle using a clamping assembly. The clamping assembly can engage the neck element at a variety of different points. Consequently, the height at which the neck element supports the secondary handlebar over the steering post can be selectively adjusted. Furthermore, at least one pivot adjustment is disposed between the steering post and the secondary handlebar. The pivot adjustment enables the secondary handlebar to be selectively adjusted along an arcuate path. As a result, the secondary handlebar can be adjusted both height and position in order to match the ergonomic needs of a particular rider.
