Abstract A bicycle having a simulated gas tank on the top bar thereof between the steering and seat post supports which comprises a bottom tray-like member secured to said top bar for carrying miscellaneous articles such as a bicycle lock, tools, spare bicycle parts, food articles, etc., and a detachable cover for said bottom member which is in the form of a container having a filling opening at the top and a dispensing spout at the lower rear side thereof adapted to contain water, milk, coffee, fruit juice or the like. The combination liquid container-tool or accessory box herein is further characterized in that the bottom tray-like member and the upper liquid container member have nested rim portions and are provided with resilient hook means to facilitate attachment and detachment of the liquid container member to and from the bottom tray-like member which is secured to the top bar of the bicycle. Yet another characterizing feature of this invention is that the dispensing spout is disposed at the left rear side of the liquid container so that, when the bicycle is supported on its kick stand, said dispensing spout will be located at the lowermost portion of the container for dispensing substantially the entire contents thereof without need for removing the same from the bottom tray-like member.
In combination a bicycle having a top bar extending between the steering post and seat post supports thereof; a bottom upwardly opening tray-like member located above and secured to the top of said top bar; and a cover member detachably secured to the top of said bottom member to form a closed compartment in said bottom member; said cover member being in the form of a closed liquid container having an opening from which the contents of said container may be dispensed.
