Abstract
A quick release for a bicycle has at least one eccentric cam provided with a bearing bore by which the cam is rotatably mounted on a shaft, which is fitted to a component, which can be secured with the aid of the eccentric cam to a bicycle. The eccentric cam can be rotated by a hand lever into a clamping position and can be released from the latter by rotation in the opposite direction. The hand lever is constructed as a lever arm which is substantially U-shaped. The two free ends of the legs of the U-shaped lever arm are, in each case, arranged in a lever arm fixing bore in the eccentric cam and have a channel, which engages around the shaft, through which the level arm is fixed in the eccentric cam.
