  • Patent number: 11952069
    Abstract: A cycling computer includes a housing for enclosing an electronics package and a mount for removably securing the housing to the front of a bicycle. The housing has a wedge-shaped profile defined by a leading edge and a lower front surface extending rearward and downward to a bottom surface. The computer mount includes a cradle for removably receiving the housing. A bracket arm extends between the cradle and a mounting adapter which is used to connect to a handlebar or otherwise. The cradle further includes a curved underside surface extending rearward from a forward edge that is sized and shaped to align with the lower front surface of the computer housing to form a substantially smooth and continuous aerodynamic surface from the leading edge of the computer housing to a rear edge of the cradle.

  • Publication number: 20220342452
    Abstract: A cover system for a housing, such as a computing device housing, includes a channel defined by a housing and including each of a first opening and a second opening. The channel includes a first portion and a second portion separated by an aperture. During use, a protrusion of a cover is inserted through the aperture from the first portion of the channel into the second portion of the channel. The tip and aperture are sized such that the aperture retains the tip in the second portion of the channel after insertion. In the event the tip breaks off of the protrusion within the channel, each of the second portion and the second opening are sized and shaped to permit rapid removal of the tip from within the channel.

  • Patent number: 11395948
    Abstract: A training device for use with a bicycle includes a shuttle guide member including a lower end and an upper end that define an axis therebetween. A shuttle is operably coupleable to a front end of the bicycle and translatable along the axis by a drive coupled to the shuttle. When coupled to the front end of the bicycle, translation of the shuttle along the axis by the drive results in each of a rotation of the shuttle guide member about a pivot and a change in elevation of the front end of the bicycle.

  • Patent number: 10500440
    Abstract: An exercise computer includes a page object that includes an ordered list of data fields. The ordered list includes a first data field pertaining to a first data value and a second data field pertaining to a second data value. A first layout stored defines a first cell having a position and size and a second cell, the cells for displaying the first data value and the second data value, respectively. A second layout defines a third cell also for displaying the first data value, but having a size and/or position different than those of the first cell. A processing unit of the exercise computer is configured to selectively display the first layout and the second layout and to populate each of the cells with the corresponding data value.
