ABSTRACT:
A bicycle exercise device that reduces generation of noises during pedaling. Fitting plates are provided to oppose each other at lower positions on a pair of first legs constituting a framework. An arm is fixed to a load resistance generator of a resistance applying unit. A fixing member pivotally supporting the arm thereon is secured to the fitting plate. A rotary drive wheel provided on the arm has a pulley and a transmission wheel, which rotate integrally. The transmission wheel is pressed against a side face of a rim of a bicycle by the urging force of a compression spring located between the fixing member and the arm. The load resistance generated by the load resistance generator is transmitted via a belt, the pulley and the transmission wheel to the rear wheel of the bicycle.
