Conduit guide for bicycles
摘要:
A conduit guide is disclosed for attaching bicycle cables or conduits to the bicycle frame. Basically, the conduit guide includes a strap and a retainer. The strap and retainer are designed to secure a bicycle conduit to the bicycle frame without exerting any substantial radial compressive force on the conduits. The strap is preferably a plastic tie-type of band clamp. Of course, other types of band clamps can be utilized. The retainer includes a U-shaped conduit retaining portion and a foot portion. The foot portion includes a first foot section and a second foot section integrally formed at the ends of the leg sections of the conduits retaining portion. A strap receiving recess is formed between the foot portion and the conduit retaining portion to secure the retainer to the bicycle frame without exerting a compressive force on the conduit. In alternate embodiments, a bridge is formed between leg sections for added stability. In selected embodiments, the conduit retaining portion is sized to receive a single conduit, while in other embodiments, the conduit receiving portion is sized to receive a pair of conduits.
