ABSTRACT:
A quick-release type clamping assembly for a bicycle hub comprises a tie rod having a threaded portion at one end and formed at the other end with an enlarged head. An end nut is screwed on the threaded portion of the tie rod. A presser member is fitted around the enlarged head, the presser member being movable relative to the enlarged head axially of the tie rod toward and away from the end nut in response to pivotal movement of an operating lever. A hub stopper is provided to surround at least one of the end nut and the presser member. The stopper is movable axially of the tie rod between an advanced position and a retreated position, and has a engaging portion for engagement with a corresponding fork end to prevent the hub from displacing relative to the fork end when the stopper assumes the advanced position. A locking mechanism holds the hub stopper in the advanced position.
