An e-bike includes a frame assembly, wheels supporting the frame assembly, a motor assembly coupled to the frame assembly by a motor fastener having a hollow portion, and an accessory component coupled to the frame assembly by an accessory fastener positioned at least partially in the hollow portion of the motor fastener.

A spacer for connecting a suspension component to a frame of a bicycle includes a spacer body and a flexible portion disposed at one end of the spacer body and configured to exert an axial bias force under compression. The spacer body and the flexible portion form a unitary part.

An electric bicycle includes a front wheel, a rear wheel, a driving unit that transmits a driving force to at least one of the front wheel and the rear wheel, a battery housing area that is able to house a battery that supplies power to the driving unit, a head pipe, and a down frame extending from the head pipe in a diagonally downward and rearward direction of a vehicle body. The down frame includes a first extension extending in the diagonally downward and rearward direction of the vehicle body and a second extension extending in the diagonally downward and rearward direction of the vehicle body and provided side by side with the first extension in a width direction of the vehicle body. The battery housing area is located at least partially between the first extension and the second extension.

A bicycle assembly can have a main frame, a subframe, and a shock absorber. The subframe can move in relation to the main frame, and the shock absorber can be used to regulate that relationship. A linkage can be connected to the shock absorber, the main frame, and a chain stay of the subframe to drive the shock absorber as the subframe is moved with respect to the main frame.

A vehicle includes a frame, a front ground-engaging sphere, a rear ground-engaging sphere, and gripping portions for a rider to hold. The front sphere is rotatable about a first axis which is transverse and fixed relative to the frame and the rear sphere is rotatable about a plurality of axes. The vehicle also includes a support, which is connected pivotally to a rear portion of the frame. The rear sphere is connected to the support for rotation about a second axis which is transverse and fixed relative to the support. The support is pivotal with respect to the frame about a third axis which extends downwardly and longitudinally of the vehicle, such that the support is pivotable through a range of positions including a neutral position wherein the first and second axes are parallel. The vehicle further includes a resilient biasing mechanism configured to resiliently bias the support towards the neutral position.

A bicycle frame set includes a front fork, a head tube, a main tube, a seat tube, and a seat stay. The front fork includes a right fork leg and a left fork leg. The front fork is rotatably coupled to the head tube. The main tube is connected to the head tube. The seat tube is connected to the main tube, the seat tube being configured to connect to a seat post. The seat stay includes a first portion connected to the seat tube at a front end of the first portion of the seat stay. When a rear wheel and a front wheel are mounted to the bicycle frame set, the first portion of the seat stay extends in a horizontal direction substantially parallel with respect to a ground plane supporting the rear wheel and the front wheel.
