Low Polar Tandem bicycle
20220144368 · 2022-05-12 ·

This Tandem bicycle design describes a reduced linear dimension, whereby the inherent polar integrity of the tandem structure is reduced.

Due to the close proximity of the cyclist, balance and coordination is more rapid and spontaneous.

The gear construct is comprised of a system of three cranking sprockets, closely arranged in a forward (one) and rearward pair. The forward and rear gears closest to the bicycle frame; coupled to a timing chain, functions as the timing mechanism. The rearward outer gear functions as the driving gear connected by a power chain to the rear wheel sprocket(s).

The handlebars required by the rear cyclist necessitates an innovative base connected to the bicycle frame located behind the front cyclist seat collar.

A locking mechanism on the handlebar coupler allows deployment of handlebars from retracted, to the riding position.
