ABSTRACT:
A bicycle attachment is used to mount and drive an oversize rear wheel on a conventional bicycle frame. The attachment has a housing with a forward axle that is releasably received in the rear wheel fork of the bicycle (after the conventional rear wheel is removed) and a clamp that releasably fixes the forward end of the housing to the frame of the bicycle. The attachment extends rearwardly from the frame of the bicycle, to an attachment rear axle that mounts the oversize tire. An attachment drive system transmits the power of the standard chain drive of the bicycle to the oversize tire.
