ABSTRACT:
A bicycle handle bar connector is provided for connecting a handle bar to the front fork of a bicycle. The connector comprises an upper and lower sheet metal member, each formed with an arcuate middle portion and flat end portion. The lower sheet metal member has one of its flat end portions welded to the top of a tubular stem. A plastic coating is molded about the back and the end portions of the lower sheet metal member and including the upper end portion of the tubular stem, and a plastic coating is also molded about the back and the end portions of the upper sheet metal member. The inner surfaces of the arcuate middle portions of the upper and lower sheet metal members are not covered with the plastic coating so that these surfaces can engage the surface of the handle bar. The connector is connected by a locking cam mounted on the bottom of the stem to the upper end of the front fork of the bicycle.
