Abstract:
A non-metallic bracket for a bicycle hydraulic component is basically provided with a non-metallic body and a force receiving member. The non-metallic body has a hydraulic hose attachment port and an internal fluid passage. The hydraulic hose attachment port has an insertion opening disposed at an exterior surface of the non-metallic body and an internal attachment bore extending from the insertion opening towards the internal fluid passage. The internal attachment bore of the hydraulic hose attachment port includes an internal screw thread portion that threadedly receives a hose fastening fitting. The force receiving member is provided to the non-metallic body so as to receive force applied to the non-metallic body in an area of the hydraulic hose attachment port caused by screwing the hose fastening fitting into the internal screw thread portion of the non-metallic body.
Abstract:
A bicycle guard is provided that has a minimal number of parts required for mounting. A drive unit is provided with the bicycle guard. The bicycle guard includes a first attaching part and a housing. The first attaching part is configured to be attached to a first connection part that connects a bicycle frame. The housing is configured to rotatably support a crankshaft.
Abstract:
A bicycle detection device is basically provided with a single sensor that is configured to output a first detection signal of a first state in response to a movement of a first operating member. The sensor is configured to output a second detection signal of a second state, which is different from the first state, in response to a movement of a second operating member.
Abstract:
A drive unit has three axles, three rotation transmitting members and an acting force detecting unit. The first axle is configured to be rotated by a crank arm. The first rotation transmitting member is arranged on the first axle to transmit rotation of the first axle by the crank arm. The second axle is spaced from the first axle. The second rotation transmitting member is arranged on the second axle, and is operatively engaged with the first rotation transmitting member to transmit rotation of the first rotation transmitting member. The third axle is spaced from the first axle and the second axle. The third rotation transmitting member is arranged on the third axle, and operatively engaged with the second rotation transmitting member to transmit rotation of the second rotation transmitting member. The acting force detecting unit arranged to detect a force acting on the second axle.
Abstract:
A bicycle drive unit basically includes a motor and a crank axle torsion sensor unit. The motor has a crank axle receiving hole that is arranged for installing a crank axle. The crank axle torsion sensor unit is at least partially disposed inside of the crank axle receiving hole in between the motor and the crank axle.
Abstract:
An operating device for a human-powered vehicle comprises a base member, an operating member, a first substrate, and a second substrate. The operating member is movably coupled to the base member. The first substrate is provided to one of the base member and the operating member. The second substrate is provided to the one of the base member and the operating member. The second substrate is separate from the first substrate.
Abstract:
A hydraulic operating device is provided for a human-powered vehicle. The hydraulic operating device basically includes a base, an operating member and a handlebar mounting structure. The base includes a cylinder bore defining a cylinder axis. The operating member is pivotally coupled to the base about a pivot axis between a rest position and an operated position. The handlebar mounting structure is coupled to the base. The handlebar mounting structure defines a handlebar mounting axis that extends linearly along a handlebar in a mounted state. The cylinder axis is inclined towards the handlebar mounting axis as the cylinder bore extends away from the pivot axis as viewed in a pivot axis direction parallel to the pivot axis. The pivot axis is located in an area between the cylinder axis and the handlebar mounting axis as viewed in the pivot axis direction.
Abstract:
A bicycle operating device comprises a base member made of a resin material. The base member includes an outer surface, a cylinder bore, and at least one recess provided on the outer surface to define a cylinder wall between the cylinder bore and the at least one recess. The cylinder wall has a cylinder-wall thickness defined between the cylinder bore and the at least one recess. The cylinder-wall thickness is equal to or larger than 1 mm and equal to or smaller than 3.5 mm.
Abstract:
A bicycle component is provided that is capable of suppressing rattling against a frame. The bicycle component includes a housing, a first attaching part and an adjustment member. The housing is configured to rotatably support a crankshaft. The first attaching part is provided to the housing and configured to be attached to a frame. The adjustment member has at least a portion which is configured to be disposed in a gap that is formed between the first attaching part and the frame while in a state in which the first attaching part is attached to the frame.
Abstract:
A bicycle drive unit is basically provided with an assist motor and a housing such that the distance between a crankshaft and a rear end of the housing is prevented from becoming long. The assist motor is configured to apply an assisting force to a manual drive force, which is inputted from a crankshaft. The housing is provided to the assist motor and at least a part of the crankshaft. The housing is disposed around the crankshaft. The housing is formed so that, when the bicycle drive unit is attached to a bicycle frame, the minimum distance from a center axis of the crankshaft and the rear end surface of the frame on the rear end side of the housing is equal to or less than 50 mm and greater than the radius of the crankshaft, as viewed from parallel to the center axis of the crankshaft.
