Abstract: A bicycle component is basically provided with a wireless communication circuit, a user interface and a controller. The wireless communication circuit is configured to wirelessly communicate with a first additional bicycle component in a first pairing state where a first pairing between the bicycle component and the first additional bicycle component is established. The user interface is configured to accept a user input. The controller is electrically connected to the wireless communication circuit and the user interface. The controller is configured to perform a reset operation to reset the first pairing in response to the user input being provided to the user interface.

Abstract: A bicycle component is basically provided with a communicator and a controller. The communicator is configured to wirelessly receive a pairing trigger signal generated in response to a user trigger input of a trigger input device, and to wirelessly receive a first pairing demand signal generated in response to a first user input of a first input device. The controller is configured to cause the bicycle component to enter a pairing mode in response to the pairing trigger signal being received by the communicator. The controller is configured to establish wireless communication between the bicycle component and a first remote component that sent the first pairing demand signal in a state where the bicycle component is in the pairing mode.

Abstract: An operating device comprises a base, a first electric switch, a second electric switch, a third electric switch, a first operating structure, and a second operating structure. The first operating structure is movably arranged with respect to the base to activate the first electric switch as the first operating structure moves from a first rest position to a first intermediate position and to activate the third electric switch as the first operating structure moves from the first intermediate position to a first operating position. The second operating structure is movably arranged with respect to the base to activate the second electric switch as the second operating structure moves from a second rest position to a second intermediate position and to activate the third electric switch as the second operating structure moves from the second intermediate position to a second operating position.
