Abstract
A bicycle handlebar stabilizer is attachable to a bicycle, the bicycle including a head tube and a set of handlebars projecting from a stem, with the stem mounted to the head tube at a pivot point to be pivotable with respect to the head tube. The bicycle handlebar stabilizer is comprised of a first clamp attachable to the stem of the bicycle above the pivot point, a bracket pivotally attached to the first clamp, a cam follower attached to a distal end of the bracket, and a second clamp having a surface and a notch in the surface that is attachable to the head tube of the bicycle below the pivot point. The bracket is pivotable between a first position with the cam follower engaged with the notch in the surface of the second clamp, and a second position with the cam follower and the notch disengaged.
