Air springs for bicycle components

Air springs for bicycle components are described herein. An example air spring includes a tube, a first sealhead coupled to the tube, a second sealhead coupled to the tube such that a sealed pressure chamber is formed in the tube between the first and second sealheads, and a seal coupled to the second sealhead. The second sealhead and the tube are coupled along an axial interface locking length. The tube has a vent port. The seal is spaced from the vent port by a port seal gap that is less than the axial interface locking length such that as the second sealhead is being decoupled from the tube, the seal loses sealing contact with the inner surface to enable at least a portion of the sealed pressure chamber to be equalized with atmospheric air before the second sealhead is fully decoupled from the tube.

Tricycle having maximum tiltable angle variable system

In the conventional tricycle, generally the front frame, the rear frame and the seat tube are attached to the bottom bracket that carries pedal assembly. Between the bottom bracket and the rear frame, a joint is installed such that the seat tube and the handlebar may tilt to the left or right. Thereby the rider can cancel out the unwanted centrifugal force that occurs during high speed turning and pushes him to the opposite direction of the handlebar causing a fall down accident. Between the seat tube and the rear frame is installed a tiltable angle variable mechanism. By operating a hand lever on the handlebar the rider can vary the tiltable angle of the handlebar as needed, for high speed turning or for maintaining balance at low speeds.
