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.

The present invention discloses a cycling or motorcycling simulator for recreation and physical exercise characterized by allowing left, right, and backward movements and tilts that can be controlled with the handlebars or body thrust. Structurally, the device of the present invention is divided mainly into six parts interconnected to get the device to function optimally. Thus, the simulator consists of i) a base that supports the other systems of the invention, ii) a mounting base that allows coupling the lifting system, the lower coupling system, and the lateral tilt system, iii) a frame giving a bicycle-shaped structure to the simulator, iv) a lifting system, v) a lateral tilt system, and vi) a lower coupling system; wherein the said systems control the turns and the tilt of the simulator. Because the present invention allows a greater range and variety of movements, the monotony of the exercise is reduced, and the user can exercise a greater number of muscles.

A bicycle training system and methods of using the same. The system includes a movement platform that rests on a support surface and supports a bicycle in an upright manner with respect to the support surface. The movement platform includes a support frame having a base and at least one upstanding arm that supportably engages a portion of a frame of the bicycle, a resistance assembly operatively coupled to a portion of a drivetrain of the bicycle that applies varying levels of resistance to the portion of the drivetrain, and a plurality of bushings isolating the base from the support surface. The plurality of bushings are spherical thereby permitting the movement platform to move with respect to the support surface in response to forces applied to the bicycle frame during use of the bicycle training system.

An apparatus enabling a user to perform a simulated bicycling exercise includes a frame, two mounting points defining an axis, the two mounting points comprising an upper rear mounting point comprising an upper rear rotating joint and a lower front mounting point comprising a pivoting connection arrangement proximate to and interacting with the frame, the pivoting connection arrangement comprising at least one resistive element configured to provide resistive force returning the frame to a neutral centered orientation from an off-centered orientation and pedals associated with a wheel and the frame, the pedals enabling the user, when facing forward, to apply force to the pedals and rotate the wheel. The frame is configured to receive forces from the user and dissipate the forces into frame leaning forces such that the user has an ability to cause the frame to pivot about the two mounting points by leaning to one side.

An exercise bike operable while remaining stationary on a support surface. The exercise bike includes a bicycle frame and a handlebar assembly. The handlebar assembly is coupled to the bicycle frame and includes a handlebar and a locking mechanism. The locking mechanism is moveable between an unlocked position in which the handlebar is allowed to rotate about an axis, and a locked position in which the handlebar is restricted from rotating about the axis.

An exercise equipment system with a movable support that is movable in a lateral direction, a sensor adapted to generate a lateral tilt signal, and a processor for generating a left or right turn output signal to a ride simulation in response to tilting of the exercise equipment during use. The exercise equipment may be a cycle mounted to a base. The processor may further filter out small magnitude sensor signals generated through left or right tilting that occurs during cycling, which are not indicative of a turn. The system may also include a display for visualizing a ride simulation of one or more network connected cycle avatars that are individually controlled with a lean-to-steer system.

The present invention relates to a freewheel adjustable wheel and an exercise bicycle including the same and. More specifically, may comprise a rotation gear part which rotates together with a pulley fixed to the outer side thereof and has a circular gear formed along the outer circumference thereof; a case part for rotatably supporting the rotation gear part; a first power transmission part for transmitting power which has been transmitted to the rotation gear part to the case part when the rotation gear part rotates in the normal direction; and a second power transmission part for transmitting power which has been transmitted to the rotation gear part to the case part when the rotation gear part rotates in the reverse direction.

A fitness bike is provided which comprises a support skeleton which comprising a triangular frame which is formed by a connection rod as a transverse rod connecting a front support leg and a rear support leg, an oblique bar of the front support leg, an oblique rod comprising a support box and a connection block of a pedaling device, and a seat column as a vertical rod; a lower end of the oblique bar is fixed on a middle of a horizontal rod of the front support leg, a rear end of the connection rod is fixed at a front side of a middle of a V-shaped rod forming the rear support leg and having an opening facing backward, and a seat support device is mounted on the top of the seat column. The structure of the fitness bike provided is simple, compact, stable, and occupies less space.

A stationary indoor “smart” training bicycle includes a unique combination of adjustable components to provide configurable dimensions to adjust the frame size of the indoor bicycle to properly fit a rider. A system is also provided to process a digital image of an outdoor bicycle and determine and translate dimensions and adjustments to the indoor bicycle to match one or more dimensions (lengths, angles, separations, etc.) of the outdoor bicycle.

An indoor, stationary, bicycle training device that provides advantages over conventional designs of exercise bicycles is provided. The stationary bicycle may include a tilting/pivoting mechanism to orient the indoor bicycle to simulate descending or climbing. The indoor bicycle may include flexible and resilient frame elements to support the indoor training device to move side-to-side under some riding situations thereby simulating the side-to-side swaying motion of an outdoor bicycle under the same riding situations. The indoor bicycle may include several combinations of frame adjustments to provide configurable dimensions of the indoor bicycle to adjust the frame to properly fit the rider, which may be adjusted based on corresponding dimensions of a user’s outdoor bicycle. Still other aspects of the stationary bicycle device may aid in creating an “outdoor” feeling while using the device.
