Depends on what you regard as muscle mass. You see that picture of Ulrich. You aren't going to get legs/hamstring muscles
like that pushing a weepy 16 to 18lb bike all day. If you say that you could, you would be lying.

You find that in people who eat next to nothing. That guy looks like he has never lifted a bag of sugar in his life never mind entered a gym. He would also need to eat alot more food, train hard, keep a clean diet & sleep well & then he would grow.

What are we talking here. Millimeters???... Cos it ain't no more than that. Start referring to increased size when you can talk about gaining 10 or more inches... Look at the pics of Chris Hoys legs, not your own by cycling alone, then compare.
