  • Patent number: 10494048
    Abstract: A bike frame with a fixed bottle opener gusset is a bicycle frame with at least a crossbar, a vertical-frame bar, and a fixed bottle opener gusset fixedly and integrally located at an intersection of the crossbar and said vertical frame-bar. The design of the frame provides added strength and increased frame life with rugged service while further providing a user with a functional bottle opener that is useful for removing a cap from a bottle when the user is riding or not riding the bicycle.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9919759
    Abstract: An inverted tube bike frame with bottle opener gusset system is a bicycle frame with the top tube and down tube having a heightened profile with concave sidewalls and a bottle opener gusset strengthening the joint between the seat tube and the top tube. The top tube has a downwardly curved design for added mechanical strength. Other tube-members of the frame have an elongated elliptical cross-section for increased strength and impact damage resistance. The wheel base is wider than that of a standard bicycle adding to forward movement stability and rider comfort. The design of the frame provides added strength and increased frame life with rugged service.
