A bicycle frame includes a tube with a hollow portion. The tube has an opening that provides access to the hollow portion, and the tube also includes one or more recessed flanges adjacent to the opening. The bicycle frame also includes a cover holder configured to mount to the one or more recessed flanges adjacent to the opening in the tube. The bicycle frame further includes an in-tube storage cover that mounts to the cover holder such that at least a portion of an exterior surface of the in-tube storage cover is flush with an outer surface of the tube. The in-tube storage cover includes a lever mounted on the exterior surface of the in-tube storage cover.

An electric vehicle includes a frame unit and a vehicle body cover unit. The frame unit includes tread tubes extending toward a rear side and arranged pairwise as a left tread tube and a right tread tube. The vehicle body cover unit includes a tread board that shields the left tread tube and the right tread tube. The frame unit is provided with a battery box that receives and holds therein a battery and the frame unit is provided thereon with a side stand. The electric vehicle is provided with an electric connection mechanism on the vehicle body at one side thereof opposite to the side stand for replenishing the battery with external electric power so that a drawback that the electric vehicle tips over when replenishment of electric power is being made to the battery is prevented to thereby improve utilization of the electric vehicle.

Systems and methods for fabricating a high-strength, low-weight material suitable for construction of a bicycle. A composition of powdered materials including magnesium, aluminum, copper, zinc, zirconia, and silicon carbide is combined and blended together. The mixture is vacuum hot pressed into a billet and then extruded. The resulting material is suitable for construction of a bicycle having excellent physical properties including strength, flexibility, comfort, and light-weight.

A tube for a bicycle has a body, an indented portion, and a machined hole. The indented portion is radially recessed in the body and has an outer bottom surface, an outer annular surface, and a first round corner being a curved surface smoothly connecting an outer tube surface of the body and the outer annular surface. The machined hole is formed through the outer bottom surface of the indented portion and has an area being less than an area of the outer bottom surface. The indented portion formed around the machined hole distributes stress to prevent cracking occurring from an edge of the machined hole. The structural strength of the tube is increased under a same total weight.

A vehicle has a driver module and a propulsion module selectively connected to the driver module. The modules are separable from each other as independent units. The driver module has a driver module frame, at least one front wheel operatively connected to the driver module frame, at least one front suspension assembly operatively connecting the at least one front wheel to the driver module frame, and a seat connected to the frame. The propulsion module has a propulsion module frame, at least one rear wheel operatively connected to the propulsion module frame, at least one rear suspension assembly operatively connecting the at least one rear wheel to the propulsion module frame, a motor operatively connected to the at least one rear wheel, and an energy storage device operatively connected to the motor.

A vehicle body frame includes a main frame that extends from a head pipe toward the vehicle rear side above an engine and a down-frame that extends downward from one end fixed to the head pipe. The main frame is assembled into a truss shape from a pair of left and right upper frames and a pair of left and right lower frames and reinforcing frames disposed between these upper frames and lower frames. Front end parts of the upper frames are fixed to the upper end side of the head pipe and front end parts of the lower frames are fixed to a part close to the head pipe in the single down-frame.

An ebike comprises a front wheel, a rear wheel, a frame structure supported on the front wheel and the rear wheel, a motor assembly coupled to the frame structure, and a battery assembly configured to be coupled to the frame structure. The frame structure includes a head tube, a down tube, a top tube, a seat tube, and a diagonal tube coupling the top tube with the seat tube. The battery assembly is configured to be at least partially positioned in the down tube. The ebike further includes a user interface configured to be supported by the frame structure, and further includes an electrical cable coupling the user interface with the motor assembly, the electrical cable being positioned at least partially in the diagonal tube.
