A bicycle component comprises a first structural member made of a conducting material, an electrical insulation layer provided to the first structural member, and a second structural member configured to be attached to the electrical insulation layer by adhesive.

The present invention relates to a folding bicycle comprising a plurality of folding elements which are grouped together into main elements, such as the frame (3), the handlebar (1), the front wheel (25), and the rear wheel (24), said main elements being combined to form one inseparable element.

The plurality of folding elements that are grouped together to form main elements allow the folding bicycle of the present invention to be carried in a so-called folded state or configuration in which it occupies a minimum volume. The folded configuration allows the bicycle to be easily transported or packed inside a standard backpack.

In the so-called unfolded or maximum-size configuration, the folding bicycle of the present invention can be cycled comfortably and safely like any standard size bicycle. The integrity of all of the components or elements of the folding bicycle of the present invention is maintained in both the folded and unfolded configurations, as well as when switching between the two configurations, meaning that there are no loose pieces and that all of the constituent elements are permanently attached to one another. The process for switching between the folded and unfolded configurations, or vice versa, is simple and does not require any external elements or additional tools, and can be carried out by the user alone following simple steps.

A wheel assembly to be coupled to a hub of a vehicle, may include arcuate inner rim assemblies removably coupled together to define a circular inner rim to be coupled to the hub of the vehicle. Each arcuate inner rim assembly may include an arcuate inner rim segment, and an arcuate inner ring segment extending radially outward from the arcuate inner rim segment. The wheel assembly may also include arcuate outer rim assemblies removably coupled together to define a circular outer rim. Each arcuate outer rim assembly may include an arcuate outer rim segment, and an arcuate outer ring segment extending radially inward from the arcuate outer rim segment. The wheel assembly may also include gas springs operatively coupled between the circular inner rim and the circular outer rim to provide a gas suspension for relative movement therebetween.

Embodiments of collapsible wheels and methods of making collapsible wheels are generally described herein. The collapsible wheels can each comprise a plurality of wheel sections, a plurality of rims, and spokes connecting the plurality of wheel sections to the plurality of rim portions. The plurality of rim portions are positioned along a perimeter of a circle that defines a central plane of the wheel. Each wheel section supports one or more spokes that connect to one or more of the rim portions. The wheel sections are rotatable relative to each other around an axis from a collapsed configuration to an expanded position. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.
