Abstract
A bicycle handlebar stem or stem/handlebar assembly has an inclined linear travel approximately 45 degrees from horizontal. This inclined path mimics a rider's natural arm inclination and pitching moment. 45 degrees is nearly ideal for most dropped bar road bicycles but different style bicycles may have an ideal angle between 30 and 60 degrees.
Claims1
A bicycle handlebar stem comprising:
- a handlebar assembly attachable to the head of a bicycle fork, and a means for an inclined linear travel approximately 45 degrees from horizontal to mimic a rider's natural arm inclination and pitching moment and configured to travel from a first position extended along the length of travel to a second position compressed along the length of travel.
