ABSTRACT:
An exercise device for mounting on a conventional bicycle provides upper body exercise, the device having an auxiliary handlebar that rotates about a shaft on which is mounted a auxiliary power unit. Movement of the auxiliary handlebar in a rotational motion against resistive force provides exercise to the upper body of the user. The movement of the auxiliary handlebar by the user additionally provides auxiliary force by which the front wheel of the conventional bicycle can be driven in conjunction with or independently of the rear wheel drive mechanism.
