A holding device for releasably holding an energy store, in particular, a bicycle energy store, at a frame, in particular, at a bicycle frame. The holding device includes at least one carrier unit, which includes at least one carrier element, in particular, a guide bar for at least partially receiving and/or guiding the energy store, and including at least one support unit for securing the energy store in a form-fit manner at the carrier unit. The support unit includes at least one support element situated at the carrier element, which secures the energy store at the carrier element in a state in which the energy store is situated at the carrier element at least along a direction extending transversely to a longitudinal axis of the carrier element.

A battery housing apparatus including a housing portion forming a housing space in which a battery is removably housed, a holding portion configured to hold the battery, and an openable cover portion closing the housing space. The housing portion includes a support portion rotatably supporting the holding portion about a rotational axis so that the battery is movable between a housed position and a non-housed position in the housing space.

A holding device including at least one first tilting lever element rotatably mounted at a first pivotal point. This tilting element is connected to a spring element, which may be tensioned with a spring. The tilting lever element includes a first hook, which may be moved into a first position and a second position. In the first position, the first hook may engage, for holding or fixing, in a receptacle of the counter element. In the second position, the first hook releases the counter element again, so that it may be removed from the holding device. The first pivotal point of the mount of the tilting lever element is situated outside the axis of the spring. The spring of the spring element may be tensioned in one position and essentially untensioned in the other position.

A seat rail of a motorcycle has two side members configured using fiber-reinforced resin. Each side member has a main body and an upper flange portion that protrudes in a width direction of a vehicle body from an upper side edge of the main body. An attachment element for attachment to the main frame of the vehicle body is provided at a front end portion of each side member, and the seat rail has at least one upper connecting member that connects two upper flange portions. The upper flange portion has an inflection section connecting the front section and the rear section such that the rear section of the upper flange portion is raised toward an upper direction with respect to the front section, and the inflection section is arranged between the front end portion of the side member and a foremost upper connecting member.

A bicycle frame lighting system comprising a top light assembly and a bottom light assembly. The top light assembly is assembled to left and right sides of a top tube of a bicycle, wherein the top light assembly includes a pair of top light assembly components that can be detached and re-attached such that top tube is secured between a cavity formed between the top light assembly components. The bottom light assembly is assembled to left and right sides of a bottom tube of the bicycle, wherein the bottom light assembly includes a pair of bottom light assembly components that can be detached and re-attached such that bottom tube is secured between a cavity formed between the bottom light assembly components. The bicycle frame lighting system further comprises a battery housing holding a power source for powering the top light assembly and the bottom light assembly.

A core of the electric motorcycle includes a monocoque that partially encloses a housing for a motor and gearbox. Separate suspension mounts attach to the core, which permits them to be exchanged for other mounts to provide different suspension geometries. A power electronics unit attaches to the front of the monocoque. The shape of the monocoque allows for the proper positioning of the center of gravity of the motorcycle in order to provide a balanced ride.
