Mounting device for bicycle component

A mounting device adapted to be coupled to a portion of a bicycle, said bicycle mounting device comprising:

• a bar clamp having a bar clamping portion adapted to be coupled to the portion of the bicycle and a support portion spaced from said bar clamping portion, one of said bar clamping portion and said support portion having a ball joint with a mounting bore formed therein;
• and
• a support member slidably coupled to said support portion and adapted to support at least one bicycle component thereon,
• said bar clamping portion being laterally offset from said support portion when mounted on the portion of the bicycle,
• each of said bar clamping portion and said support portion having a split ring section with a mounting bore that is adjustable in size by at least one fastener
• said at least one fastener being a single fastener that adjusts the size of said mounting bores of both of said split ring sections.

A mounting device adapted to be coupled to a portion of a bicycle, said bicycle mounting device comprising:

• a bar clamp having a bar clamping portion adapted to be coupled to the portion of the bicycle and a support portion spaced from said bar clamping portion, one of said bar clamping portion and said support portion having a ball joint with a mounting bore formed therein with said bar clamp being selectively movably about said ball joint;
• and
• a support member slidably coupled to said support portion to selectively move said support member relative to said support portion independently of said ball joint moving relative to said bar clamp and adapted to support at least one bicycle component thereon,
• said support member being an elongated rod that is slidably coupled within said mounting bore of said support portion to selectively move said elongated rod relative to said bar clamp in a direction along a longitudinal axis of said elongated rod.

A mounting device adapted to be coupled to a portion of a bicycle, said bicycle mounting device comprising:

• a first bar clamp having a first bar clamping portion adapted to be coupled to the portion of the bicycle and a first support portion spaced from said first bar clamping portion, one of said first bar clamping portion and said first support portion having a first ball joint with a first mounting bore formed therein;
• a second bar clamp having a second bar clamping portion adapted to be coupled to the portion of the bicycle and a second support portion spaced from said second bar clamping portion, one of said second bar clamping portion and said second support portion of said second bar clamp having a second ball joint with a second mounting bore formed therein;
• and
• a support member slidably coupled to said support portion and adapted to support at least one bicycle component thereon, said support member being an elongated rod that is slidably coupled within said first and second mounting bores of said first and second ball joints to selectively move said elongated rod relative to said first and second bar clamps in a direction along a longitudinal axis of said elongated rod.
