ABSTRACT:
A cycle, for example a bicycle, comprises a frame, a crossbar vertically pivotally mounted to the frame, a saddle fixed to the crossbar, a crank rotatably mounted on the frame, a mechanism for transmitting rotation of the crank to a drive wheel of the cycle, pedals rotatably provided on the crank for effecting rotation of the crank and a force transmission member for transmitting a force from the saddle to the crank, the force transmission member being pivoted to the crossbar for vertical movement in response to vertical pivotal movement of the crossbar, and to the crank for reciprocation of the force transmission member with rotation of the crank. Thus the cycle may be propelled by the application of a force to the saddle and the pedals alternately.
