US Patent:

20210394858, Dec 23, 2021

Filed:

Sep 2, 2021

Appl. No.:

17/464944

Inventors:

- Morgan Hill CA, US
Jason Scott McDonald - San Jose CA, US
James Michael Stafford - Gilroy CA, US

International Classification:

B62K 19/44
B62K 25/30

Abstract:

A bicycle includes a chainstay protector having an upper surface including a valley, a first peak, and a second peak. The first peak extends upwardly from the valley toward the chain and has a first contact surface positioned to contact the chain a first height above the valley. The second peak extends upwardly from the valley toward the chain and has a second contact surface positioned to contact the chain a second height above the valley. The first contact surface is spaced from the second contact surface by a gap that is at least 5 times the first height. Each of the first and second contact surfaces has a length that is less than the length of the gap and less than two times a pitch of the chain.

- Morgan Hill CA, US
Jason McDonald - Morgan Hill CA, US

International Classification:

B62K 25/28
B62K 3/02

Abstract:

A bicycle assembly can include a bicycle frame having a main frame and a sub-frame, and a shock absorber assembly. The shock absorber assembly can comprise a shock absorber and an extension body. The sub-frame can rotate in relation to the main frame and the shock absorber assembly can be used to regulate that relationship. An eccentric insert positioned functionally between the shock absorber and extension body can be used to modify the overall length of the shock absorber assembly to beneficially alter the geometry of the bicycle frame.

Jason McDonald - San Jose CA, US

International Classification:

B62M 1/36
B62K 3/02
B62M 9/02

Abstract:

A bicycle includes a frame, a front and rear wheel and a crank assembly. The frame includes chainstays and a bottom bracket having a center and which rotationally receives the crank assembly. The crank assembly includes a chain ring having a radius between the bottom bracket center and a circumferential edge. The chainstays are connected to the bottom bracket at a first end and rotationally receive the rear wheel at a second end. The chainstay defines a cutout sized to receive a portion of a circumferential edge of the chain ring.
