RACING BICYCLE Russian patent published in 2012 - IPC B62K21/02 B62K25/02 B62K19/32 B62K19/48 B62K19/00 

FIELD: transport.

SUBSTANCE: track bicycle front wheel right side surface is flat and shifted to the left from vertical plane of bicycle symmetry. Rear wheel left side surface has undercut and is shifted to the right from vertical plane of bicycle symmetry. Reduction in total length of racer team with no disturbance in lengthwise team symmetry is ensured by locating front wheel 4 nearby leader rear wheel 5. Required safety clearance between planes of front and rear wheels 4, 5 is reached by shifting steering column to the left from vertical plane of bicycle symmetry with retaining front rim with tire at the center of front fork 2 and rear rim with tire retained at rear fork center. Alternatively, said clearance can be ensured by shifting said front wheel rim to the left from front fork center 2 and shifting rear wheel rim to the right from rear wheel fork center.

EFFECT: improved racing team common aerodynamics, better control at track turns.
