Abstract: A dropper post assembly for supporting a bicycle seat may include an outer tube extending along a post axis and an inner tube configured to be axially slidable within the outer tube by a travel distance that is at least 200 mm between a retracted and an extended position. A spring cartridge may have an unlocked configuration in which the spring cartridge exerts an extension force (FE) on the inner tube that biases the inner tube toward the extended position, and a locked configuration in which the spring cartridge is operable to generate a degassing force (FD) of between about 90 lbs and about 140 lbs to resist movement of the inner tube toward the retracted configuration.

Abstract: A dropper post assembly for supporting a bicycle seat may have an outer tube and an inner tube having a clearance portion and an upper end that includes an inward facing axial stop surface that defines a laterally extending abutment plane. A spring cartridge assembly has a cartridge cross-sectional that is less than 90% of the interior cross-sectional area of the clearance portion. A lower engagement member is disposed toward a lower end of the inner tube and substantially fills a lateral between lower end of the cartridge tube and the inner tube. A post head member has a front fastening aperture, a lowermost part oof which lies in a laterally extending post head plane that is disposed axially inboard from the abutment plane.

Abstract: A dropper post assembly for supporting a bicycle seat may include an outer tube extending along a post axis and an inner tube configured to be axially slidable within the outer tube by a travel distance that is at least 200 mm between a retracted and an extended position. The inner tube may have an outer diameter that is between 25.5 mm and 30 mm, and when the inner tube is in the extended position a moment of inertia (Ix) taken adjacent the seat collar is at least 11,000 mm4. A spring cartridge may have an unlocked configuration in which the spring cartridge exerts an extension force (FE) on the inner tube that biases the inner tube toward the extended position, and a locked configuration in which the spring cartridge is operable to generate a degassing force (FD) of between about 90 lbs and about 140 lbs to resist movement of the inner tube toward the retracted configuration. An actuator may be operable to change the spring cartridge between the locked configuration and the unlocked configuration.

Abstract: A dropper post assembly for supporting a bicycle seat can include an outer tube and an inner tube telescopically receivable in the outer tube and slidable within the outer tube between a retracted position in which a lower end of the inner tube is proximate a lower end of the outer tube and an extended position in which the lower end of the inner tube is axially spaced from the lower end of the outer tube. An actuator assembly may include an actuator body having a mounting portion connected to the lower end of the outer tube and a cartridge rod receiving portion, and may be configured so that when the inner tube is in the retracted position at least the upper surface of the cartridge rod receiving portion is nested within the inner tube.

Abstract: A bicycle chainring may have a plurality of first teeth that fit within the narrow link spaces in a drive chain, and a plurality of second teeth that fit within the wide link spaces in a drive chain. Each second tooth may have a first width that is greater than the its tip width at a location that is between about 40% and about 60% of the tooth height and a second width that is greater than the first width and is between the first plane and the root. A first transition portion may be on a first side of the second tooth and may extends between a first edge that is at the tip and extends in an edge direction that is substantially parallel to the central plane and a second edge that is disposed at the second plane and extends in the edge direction.

Abstract: The present invention provides a bicycle tool storage device mountable in a bicycle headset assembly and/or a bicycle pump. A top cap for loading a headset assembly and mounting the device is also provided. The top cap includes an annular body and a device receiving aperture extending through the body. The top cap includes a flange extending radially outwardly from a first end of the body and a ridge defined in an inner surface of the body adjacent to the flange. The ridge is concentrically aligned with the aperture for retaining the device. Further still, a bicycle pump for mounting the device is provided. The pump includes a pump body, a handle, a pump head, and a flange. The pump body houses a plunger and a piston. The plunger and handle define a cavity for receiving the device. The handle further defines a flange for retaining the device.

Abstract: A chain guide for a bicycle having may include a base frame and a height adjustment member connected to the base frame and slidable relative to the base frame and lockable in a first position by engaging a first locking member. A retaining member may be pivotally connected to the height adjustment member and may be pivotable about a pivot axis a retaining position, in which the retaining member is positioned to obstruct lateral movement of the chain away from the chainring thereby preventing lateral misalignment between the chain and the chainring, and a removal position, in which the retaining member does not obstruct lateral movement of the chain away from the base frame while the height adjustment member is locked in the first position. The pivot axis may be spaced apart from the first locking member.
