    Abstract: A shock absorber includes a first end and a second end that reciprocate relative to one another. The shock absorber includes a gas spring chamber, a damping chamber, and a floating piston. The first side of the floating piston is in fluid communication with the gas spring chamber. The second side of the floating piston is in fluid communication with the damping chamber. The gas in the gas spring chamber applies pressure against the floating piston, which applies pressure to the substantially incompressible fluid in the damping chamber. This pressure transfer may be adequate to minimize or prevent cavitation.

    Abstract: An assembly for minimizing the disengagement of a chain from a chain ring is disclosed. The assembly includes an inboard leg and an outboard leg. Rotation of the outboard leg relative to the inboard leg locks the inboard leg in place relative to the outboard leg. Relative rotation locks the assembly onto a shaft. The assembly may include an outboard leg that snaps into place on the inboard leg and is capable of rotating between two extreme positions.
