A method for producing a bicycle brake arch and fork legs assembly. The method comprises the steps of first forming a low-tolerance brake arch and two low tolerance fork legs separately, and then bonding the brake arch with the two fork legs in high-precision alignment and orientation with a structural adhesive.

Improved handlebars for bicycles, motorcycles, power vehicles such as two wheeled power vehicles and all terrain vehicles, including off road bicycles, motorcycles, dirt bikes, all terrain bicycles, all terrain vehicles and jet skis. The improved handlebars eliminate the need of a crossbar by increasing the diameter and sidewall thickness of the central section of the handlebars, and diminish the stiffness of the handlebars by decreasing the respective diameter and sidewall thickness of the two grip sections of the handlebars. The improved handlebars are incorporated with unique tapered sections and are manufactured through a process that causes greater amount of metal to be located in the widest diameter section of the handlebars, and smaller amount of metal to be located in the narrowest diameter section of the handlebars. The handlebars have a longer unsupported span than conventional handlebars, thereby providing more cushioning strength and greater steering control. The strength of the handlebar is reinforced due to the increased diameter and thickened sidewall of said central section, and the stiffness of said handlebar is reduced due to the decreased diameters and thinned sidewalls of said first and second grip sections.

Improved handlebars for power vehicles such as two wheeled vehicles and all terrain vehicles, and in particular to handlebars for off road motorcycles, dirt bikes, all terrain vehicles and jet skis. The improved design eliminates the requirement for a crossbar by designing handlebars that have a larger diameter central portion including the area where the handlebars are attached to the vehicle, and a unique tapered configuration wherein the handblebars are manufactured through a process that causes the same amount of metal to be located in the widest diameter portion of the handlebars as in the narrowest diameter portion of the handlebars. The handlebars have a longer unsupported span than conventional handlebars, thereby providing more cushioning strength and greater steering control.

A portable apparatus for retaining a bicycle in the manner of a conventional bicycle repair stand, and which can be used in conjunction with a conventional sports rack attached to the roof of a car or van. The apparatus can be attached to the conventional bicycle sports rack which is attached to the roof of a car and therefore utilizes the car and the sports rack as the supporting body framework to hold and support a bicycle in any desired orientation. The apparatus comprises an elongated member whose exterior cross-sectional dimensions are slightly smaller than the interior cross-sectional dimensions of the elongated base of a conventional sports rack attached to the roof of a vehicle, and is fitted into the interior section of the elongated base of the sports rack and retained therein by a press fit. Additional portions attached to the elongated section support a clamping mechanism which can retain a portion of a bicycle such as the horizontal tube of the frame.
