    Abstract: A human-powered vehicle control device is provided for controlling a human-powered vehicle. The human-powered vehicle control device includes an electronic controller controls a transmission device in accordance with a control state including first and second control states. The electronic controller changes the transmission ratio in accordance with a shifting condition including a reference value related to a traveling state of the human-powered vehicle in the first control state. The electronic controller changes the transmission ratio in accordance with an operation performed on an operation portion in the second control state. The electronic controller changes the shifting condition in accordance with a converging reference value for a case where the human-powered vehicle is in a riding converging state. The electronic controller changes the shifting condition in accordance with the converging reference value for a case where the control state is the second control state.

    Abstract: A bicycle operating device comprises a base member, an operating member, a wireless communicator, and a power supply. The base member includes a first end to be mounted to a bicycle handlebar and a second end opposite to the first end. The operating member is pivotally coupled to the base member about a first pivot axis. The electrical switch is to be activated by an input operation from a user. The wireless communicator is electrically connected to the electrical switch to wirelessly transmit a signal to an additional component in response to the input operation. The power supply is electrically connected to the wireless communicator to supply electrical power to the wireless communicator. The wireless communicator and the power supply are at least partially overlap with each other when viewed from a direction perpendicular to the first pivot axis.

    Abstract: A bicycle hub assembly comprises a hub axle, a hub body, and a sprocket support structure. The hub axle includes an axle through-bore that has an axle minimum inner diameter equal to or larger than 13 mm. The hub body has a first body end and a second body end opposite to the first body end in an axial direction with respect to a rotational center axis. The sprocket support structure is rotatably mounted on the hub axle about the rotational center axis. The sprocket support structure includes a first torque-transmitting profile and a first externally-threaded portion. The first torque-transmitting profile is configured to transmit a rotational force. The first externally-threaded portion is configured to threadedly engage with a first internally-threaded portion of a first lock member. The first torque-transmitting profile is closer to the first body end than the first externally-threaded portion in the axial direction.

    Abstract: A caliper adaptor comprises a frame coupling portion, a first coupling portion, and a second coupling portion. The first coupling portion is configured to be coupled to a first caliper body of the disc brake caliper in a first state where the first caliper body is in a first radial position relative to the rotational axis. The first coupling portion extends in the axial direction in the first state. The second coupling portion is configured to be coupled to a second caliper body in a second state where the second caliper body is in a second radial position relative to the rotational axis. The second radial position is different from the first radial position. The second coupling portion extends in the axial direction in the second state.
