Abstract: A human-powered vehicle control device includes: an input rotary body to which a human driving force is input; a driving wheel driven by rotating the input rotary body; a transmission configured to change a ratio of a rotational speed of the driving wheel to a rotational speed of the input rotary body; a motor that assists in propulsion of the human-powered vehicle; and an electronic controller configured to control the motor. The electronic controller controls the motor in accordance with the human driving force in a case where one of the rotational speed ratio and a transmission stage of the transmission is in a first state, and stops the control of the motor in accordance with the human driving force in a case where one of the rotational speed ratio and the transmission stage is in a second state different from the first state.

Abstract: A human-powered vehicle control device is configured to reduce electric power needed to drive a motor. The human-powered vehicle control device includes an electronic controller and a memory. The electronic controller is configured to control a motor that assists in propulsion of a human-powered vehicle in accordance with human driving force and a memory. The electronic controller drives the motor in a case where the human driving force is greater than or equal to a first value. The memory electronic changeably store the first value.

Abstract: A bicycle component controlling includes at least a first sensor and a controller. The first sensor detects a first operating condition, whether a rider is sitting on a bicycle seat. A second sensor is provided that detects a second operating condition. The sensors output signals indicative of the respective operating conditions. The controller is operatively connected to at least the first sensor and possibly the second sensor. The controller is configured to generate a component control command to control a bicycle component based on at least the first signal and the possibly the second signal. The bicycle component is a component other than an automatic transmission and a suspension when the second sensor is not provided. If the second sensor is provided, a suspension and automatic transmission is controlled, or components other than an automatic transmission and a suspension is controlled.
