The present invention relates to an indoor stand with degrees of movement side gear for use with bicycles comprising two main components assembled in an integrated manner: 1) a rear roller and 2) a front stand that attaches to the fork, instead of the front wheel, in which springs or cushions below the front fork allow degree of lateral movement to the left and right, in which a main bar is coupled to the base by an axis that allows the lateral movement degrees with stability. The presence of these components makes the present invention well simulate the experience of pedaling outdoors and working on the user's shoulders, arms and abdomen.

A steering assembly for a mounted bicycle is disclosed herein. The steering assembly includes a support base and at least one omnidirectional roller assembly extending from a bottom surface thereof. The at least one omnidirectional roller assembly is operatively disposed in direct contact with a ground surface and is structured to facilitate movement of the support base along the ground surface in a plurality of different arcuate and linear paths to accommodate varying trail measurements of a bicycle. The varying trail measurements of the bicycle are defined by varying angles of the bicycle relative to the ground surface during operative use of the steering assembly.

Vehicle simulators assist a rider with balancing a human-supported vehicle (e.g., bicycle, motorcycle, scooter, skateboard, etc.) by laterally displacing two pivot points supporting the vehicle without longitudinally moving the vehicle. The lateral displacement may be human-controlled, and need not require a wheel rolling on a belt or roller. The vehicle simulators feature mechanisms to laterally translate a front portion (e.g., a front wheel) and a rear portion (e.g., a rear wheel) of the vehicle such that a rider may balance the vehicle by steering. Advantageously, embodiments allow the vehicle to be laterally translated such that the rider may balance the vehicle in the same manner as when riding on a road, thereby providing a more realistic experience than prior-art simulators (e.g., stationary bicycle trainers) that do not allow the vehicle to be laterally translated and therefore do not require the rider to balance the vehicle.

A bicycle rollers assembly (10) having a rear and a front and further having a rear pair of parallel rollers (12) each having an axis of rotation, and adapted to support a rear bicycle wheel having an axle parallel to the axes of rotation. The rollers (12) are spaced so as to support the rear bicycle wheel with the lowest part of the bicycle wheel positioned between the rollers. Also, a front support structure (18) supports a front bicycle fork support element (24) so as to permit horizontal rotation, and this support element includes a support (26) for each arm of a bicycle fork (29).

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.

With a device for a person to sit on for training purposes for executing a leg rotation movement similar to cycling, with a saddle and a bottom bracket bearing, it is provided that it comprises at least one mounting element for immobile mounting and that it has connecting sections similar to dropouts for connection to a roller trainer.

A bicycle trainer, including a base, permitting fore and aft movement and a frame, supported by the base. Also, a seat and a handlebar assembly and a pedaling assembly is supported by the frame. The handlebar assembly is rotatably engaged to the frame, and is supported by a tongue, that is hinged to the base so as to permit horizontal rotation, and the handlebar assembly is attached to the tongue at a position removed from the hinge. Turning the handlebars causes the frame to move laterally.

An exercise apparatus including a stationary exercise apparatus and a lever arm pivotably biased about a pivot axis. A support supports the lever arm above the stationary exercise apparatus, and a biasing device rotatably biases the lever arm with respect to the support about the pivot axis. The pivot axis extends substantially in a vertical direction, and the stationary exercise apparatus is a treadmill.
