Abstract: A water bottle cage for bicycles is molded from a resilient substantially rigid polymeric material and includes an elongated base portion, a bottom flange portion projecting from the base portion adjacent one end thereof and engageable by a portion of the bottom of the water bottle, and a cage portion. The cage portion has a pair of oppositely disposed arcuate segments, each joined at one end to the other end of the base portion and extending laterally thereof for engagement with the side wall of the water bottle generally circumferentially thereof and having its other end disposed generally opposite across the water bottle from the base portion, a pair of lengthwise segments, each joined at one end to the other end of a respective arcuate segment and engageable with the side wall of the water bottle, and an end segment joining the other ends of the lengthwise segments and engageable with a portion of the bottom of the water bottle.

Abstract: The wheel includes an annular rim, a central hub, a plurality of spoke portions running between the rim and hub, and two wheel portions integrally joined to each other and including the spoke portions.

Abstract: A bicycle chain hanger comprises a unitary member molded from a polymeric material and including a disc-like base portion having a concavely curved internal surface adapted to bear against the wall of the seat stay and a generally L-shaped hook portion extending outwardly from the base portion and adapted to accept and hold an element of the chain in hooked relation. Two pins, driven with a force fit through each of two holes and through corresponding split sleeves that extend through holes in the seat stay tube into the space within the tube walls, deflect portions of the split sleeve out into interfering relation with the walls and edges of the tube holes and thereby retain the member on the seat stay.

Abstract: A cable guide for affixing a cable or the like to a tube of a bicycle frame comprises a body including at least one base portion adapted to seat on the frame member and having at least one hole, a ferrule portion extending up from the base portion and adapted to receive the cable, and a split sleeve portion extending down from the base portion in alignment with the hole and adapted to extend through a hole in the frame tube. A mandrel is received through the hole in the base portion, extends through the split sleeve and expands the legs of the sleeve outwardly into tight engagement with the wall of the hole in the tube and expands the ends of the sleeve outwardly within the tube, whereby the expanded and extended split sleeve retains the guide on the frame tube.

Abstract: A bracket adapted to be fastened to the seat stays of a bicycle frame is a unitary member of general U shape having a base portion and a pair of leg portions. The base portion has a hole adapted to receive a stop fitting for a brake cable sheath, and each leg has a hole adapted to receive a fastener by which each of a pair of rear carrier rack attachment arms is attached to the respective seat stays.
