Problems solved by technology

Furthermore, typical e-bikes are heavier than standard bicycles due to the added weight of the electric motor and battery pack, and are therefore relatively inaccessible in situations and places where bicycles cannot be ridden—such as pedestrian areas and public transit stops or vehicles. hard to control

Embodiment Construction

[0105] review

[0106] Exemplary bicycles according to the present invention include a collapsible frame from which the wheels may be removed or repositioned for reconfiguration and / or for storage of the frame. The folded frame fits into the luggage space of a typical passenger car, minimizing loss of luggage space capacity and minimizing weight to lift if the wheels are removed. An exemplary bicycle may include a power and control system including a computer and data input devices for measuring, for example, physiological factors of the user and controlling the motor according to the user's characteristics. With the wheels reattached and / or repositioned to the folded frame, an exemplary bicycle may be in a towing configuration such that the bicycle and any attachments thereto (eg, luggage) are pulled by the user. In embodiments including a power and control system, the electric motor can be activated in the towing configuration to assist in towing the collapsible bicycle. E...

Abstract

An apparatus includes a first pair of brackets coupled to a first bicycle frame member, and one of the first pair of brackets has a radially inwardly extending first protrusion. The apparatus includes a first gear member coupled to a second bicycle frame member, and the gear member is rotatably coupled in a first pair of brackets. The first gear member has a first set of recesses spaced radially from one another about its periphery. The device further includes a first clamping member engaged with at least one of the first pair of brackets and selectively biasing the first protrusion into one of the first set of recesses to rotatably relative to the first pair of brackets Lock the first gear member.
