Abstract:
An integral auxiliary handlebar for a main handlebar generally comprises a neck portion operatively arranged to be secured to a main handlebar, an arcuate portion proximate the neck portion, a first straight handgrip portion proximate the arcuate portion, and a second straight handgrip portion proximate the first straight handgrip portion. The neck portion of the integral auxiliary handlebar generally comprises a C-shaped member operatively arranged to be clamed about the main handlebar. The integral auxiliary handlebar is solid throughout, yet lightweight to meet the needs of the competition bicyclist. The integral auxiliary handlebar is specifically configured to be secured a main handlebar of an off-road bicycle, but could be modified to be secured to any type of handlebar.
