A support device for a bicycle includes a support structure, a fixing group supported on the support structure and a movable element and a retention element configured to retain the front fork of the bicycle. The support device further includes a raising/lowering device of the fixing group, the retention element is translatable jointly with the movable element, and the retention element is rotatably connected to the movable element.

A support device for a bicycle includes a support structure, a fixing group supported on the support structure and also includes a movable element and a retention element configured to hold the front fork of the bicycle. The support device also includes a lifting/lowering device of the fixing group, in which the retention element is integral in translation with the movable element. The support device further includes connection means configured for slidingly fixing said fixing group to the support structure in such a way as to allow displacements of the fixing group with respect to the support structure along a compensation direction transverse to the vertical direction.

A flexible trainer stand for indoor cycling includes a bracket, a flat plate, a first guide portion, a second guide portion, and elastic devices. The first guide portion and the second guide portion can slide relative to each other, which is configured for simulating forward and backward movement of a bike generated when a user accelerates and sprints. The first guide portion and the second guide portion can be inclined under an action of the elastic device, which is configured for simulating left and right inclination of the bike generated when the user is cycling and exerting force. A lifting device is arranged on the flat plate, which is configured for simulating position changes of the bike in a vertical direction when a slope changes. Somatosensory feedback of the user during outdoor cycling is truly simulated, and a feedback force can be adjusted.

A bicycle trainer stand comprises supporting means for supporting to a base, a lower support connected to the supporting means, and an upper support (14) connected to the lower support and comprising fastening means for connecting to a bicycle. The upper support is tiltable around an imaginary rotation axis with respect to the lower support. The trainer stand further comprises first spring elements for subjecting the upper support to a force opposing the tilting. In the invention, the lower support is movable with respect to the supporting means in a direction perpendicular to said rotation axis. A bicycle trainer device comprises a first trainer stand for fastening to the front fork of a bicycle, and a second trainer stand for fastening to the rear fork of a bicycle.

A bicycle trainer with a hill training apparatus is described. The hill training apparatus enables bicyclists to simulate uphill riding (incline), downhill riding (decline), and hill resistance or lack thereof. The hill training apparatus also provides for correct body positioning while riding uphill or downhill, and with or without resistance. Riding on a trainer with correct body positioning provides for improved training.

An exercise bike comprising: a base; a frame having a head tube; and a steering stem mounted in the head tube, and operable to be rotatable about the longitudinal axis of the stem by a user, wherein a lower part of the frame is pivotally mounted to the base to allow rotation of the frame, relative to the base, about a substantially horizontal axis, wherein a first resilient mounting is provided between the frame and the base, and a second resilient mounting is provided between the steering stem and the base, the first and second resilient mountings, together, configured to bias the frame towards a substantially upright position relative to the base, the second resilient mounting further configured to urge the stem substantially into rotational alignment with a predetermined point on the base.

The present invention relates to a cycling training device intended to support a bicycle equipped with a front part and a rear part on front and rear articulated supports respectively, which are incorporated into a frame, said articulated supports allowing the swinging movements of the bicycle in at least one longitudinal and/or transverse plane with respect to the frame.

A support for a front bicycle fork having a base and a support post, flexibly, but constrainedly, supported by the base. Also, a fork support is mounted on the support post. Finally, the support post is susceptible to sufficient movement to permit a rider on a bicycle with a front fork mounted on the fork support to move or rotate the front fork.
