Abstract: A bicycle apparatus includes an ABS unit, a wheel detection device and a control device. The ABS unit is configured to control a braking force, and the wheel detection device is configured to detect a rotational speed. The control device is configured to receive detection results to determine whether the bicycle is in a prescribed state. The control device is configured to control the ABS unit upon determining the bicycle is in the prescribed state. The prescribed state includes at least one of a state in which a difference between the rotational speeds of the front and rear wheels is greater than or equal to a prescribed rotational speed, and a state in which a change in the rotational speed of the at least one of the front wheel and rear wheels is greater than or equal to a prescribed value has occurred.
