    摘要: A hub assembly is provided for a human powered vehicle. The hub assembly basically includes a hub axle, a hub body, a thru-axle and an electrical cable. The thru-axle is configured to be disposed in a through bore of the hub axle. The electrical cable includes a first cable section extending from an interior space of the hub body through an opening in the hub axle and into the through bore. The electrical cable includes a second cable section extending in the axial direction within the through bore. The electrical cable includes an axially expandable cable section between the first cable section and the second cable section. The axially expandable cable section extends in the axial direction within the through bore. The axially expandable cable section is expandable in the axial direction in response to movement of the thru-axle relative to the hub axle.

    摘要: A hub assembly is provided for a human-powered vehicle. The hub assembly includes a hub axle, a hub body, a pawl support body, at least one pawl, a sprocket support body, at least one sprocket support bearing, a ratchet body and a plurality of ratchet teeth. The hub body is rotatably mounted on the hub axle. The pawl support body is connected to the hub body. The pawl is movable between a driving position and a non-driving position. The at sprocket support bearing rotatably supports the sprocket support body on the hub axle. The ratchet body is connected to the sprocket support body. The ratchet teeth engage the pawl to transmit a driving force from the sprocket support body to the hub body while rotating in a driving rotational direction. The sprocket support bearing is disposed opposite to the hub body with respect to the ratchet teeth.

    摘要: A human-powered vehicle control device includes an electronic controller that controls a transmission device to shift a ratio of a rotational speed of a wheel to a rotational speed of a crank axle. The controller controls the transmission device between first, second, and third control states. The controller controls the transmission device in the first control state for a predetermined period in a case where the human-powered vehicle starts to travel until a vehicle state becomes a predetermined state. The controller switches from the first to the second control state if the vehicle state becomes the predetermined state. The controller switches from the first to the third control state if a human driving force input to the human-powered vehicle becomes greater than a predetermined driving force during the predetermined period. Shifting of the ratio is more restricted in the first control state than the second and third control states.

    摘要: A hub assembly is provided for a human-powered vehicle. The hub assembly includes a hub axle, a hub body, a cable and a cable protector. The hub axle has a first axial end and a second axial end. The hub body is rotatably mounted on the hub axle to rotate around a rotational center axis of the hub assembly. The cable has a first portion disposed inside of the hub assembly and a second portion disposed outside of the hub assembly. The cable protector is movably arranged between a first position and a second position. The second portion of the cable extends along the rotational center axis where the cable protector is in the first position. The second portion of the cable being at least partly restrained in an angled position with respect to the rotational center axis where the cable protector is in the second position.

    摘要: A human-powered vehicle control system includes a first component and a second component. The first component includes a first electronic controller, a first wireless communicator, and a first storage. The second component includes a second electronic controller, a second wireless communicator, and a second storage. The second electronic controller controls the second wireless communicator to transmit second identification information of the second component to a communication device. The first electronic controller controls the first wireless communicator to transmit first identification information of the first component to the second component in response to receipt of the second identification information by the first wireless communicator from the communication device. The second electronic controller controls the second storage to store the first identification information in response to receipt of the first identification information by the second wireless communicator from the first component.

    摘要: 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.
