Abstract: A battery holder includes a first base, a first restriction portion and a holding portion. The first base is opposed to one end of a battery unit in a first direction in the state in which the battery unit is located at a holding position. The first restriction portion is configured to restrict relative movement of the battery unit and the first base in the first direction. The holding portion is movable to a first position, at which the battery unit contacts a held portion of the battery unit, and a second position, at which the holding portion is separated from the held portion.

Abstract: A bicycle shifting device calibration system, a bicycle seatpost calibration system and a bicycle suspension calibration system are provided that allow for easy setting of a shifting position or an actuation parameter. The bicycle shifting device calibration system includes an electronic controller and a memory. The electronic controller sets a plurality of shifting positions related to a shifting device based on vibration information that is output from a vibration detector in a case where a movable portion of the shifting device is continuously moved from a first position to a second position, which differs from the first position, in a state where the shifting device is coupled to a bicycle. The memory stores the plurality of shifting positions set by the electronic controller.

Abstract: A battery holder includes a first base, a first holding portion and a second holding portion. The first base is opposed to a first end of the battery unit in the state in which the battery unit is located at a first holding position. The first holding portion is movably arranged on the first base between a first position, where the first holding portion contacts a held portion of the battery unit to hold the battery unit at the first holding position, and a second position, where the first holding portion is separated from the held portion. The second holding portion is arranged on the first base at a downstream side of the first holding portion in a removal direction of the battery unit from the battery holder to hold the battery unit at a second holding position that is located at a downstream side of the first holding position.
