The utility model relates to a lever pedal type gear drive bicycle belongs to the bicycle field, adopts gear drive's technical scheme. Its characterized in that also has gear transmission set spare, footboard power component and footboard reset assembly, gear transmission set spare has two groups, and every group comprises a bull wheel, pinion, ratchet and axle, and the bull wheel excircle is the ratchet, and its interior circle be with little gear engagement's gear wheel, the pinion of two groups fix respectively the both sides of bicycle trailing axle and with big gear engagement, power component by the footboard, step on arm, pawl and pressure spring and constitute, footboard reset assembly includes pulley and tightrope cable, and the pulley is fixed on the frame and can be rotated, and tightrope cable process compresses tightly the outer disc of pulley, and its both ends are fixed on stepping on the arm. This scheme enables the gear drive with big drive ratio for speed and can not demeshing can alleviate hard with the longer arm of stepping on, has overcome sprocket, chain drive's shortcoming for the bicycle.
