    摘要: A process for manufacturing a spoked bicycle wheel, comprising the steps of providing a rim element having a spoke attachment chamber; providing a spoke attachment assembly for coupling to a respective spoke, inserting the spoke attachment assembly through an opening of the spoke attachment chamber along an insertion direction that is inclined with respect to the rim element and moving the spoke attachment assembly along the insertion direction until a stem of the spoke attachment assembly is at the surface of the spoke attachment chamber; moving the spoke attachment assembly along the surface of the spoke attachment chamber towards a spoke attachment seats; inserting the stem in the spoke attachment seat; and, constraining the spoke attachment assembly in the spoke attachment seat. The steps are repeated to couple a respective spoke attachment assembly to each of the plurality of spoke attachment seats. The invention also relates to a spoked bicycle wheel produced by the above process.

    摘要: A bicycle-implemented transmission method is applied in a transmitter component of a bicycle electronic system. Each component of the system has zero or more pieces of information attributable thereto and is candidate to communication within the system. Each of the attributable pieces of information includes an identifier which is unique in the bicycle electronic system. According to the method: a payload is formed, including an attributable piece of information and an identifier of an instruction executable by an addressee component; a value of a characteristic of a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) service of a Generic Attribute Profile (GATT) server of a BLE network architecture is set to the payload; and the characteristic is transmitted to the addressee component or to a receiver component to which the addressee component is directly or indirectly connected.

    摘要: A bicycle electric/electronic derailleur has a plurality of mutually movable components: a support body configured to be attached to a bicycle frame, a chain guide, and a pair of connecting arms, for connection between the support body and the chain guide at respective geometric articulation axes. A geared motor controls the motion of the plurality of mutually movable components. At least one first component has a case with a chamber containing the geared motor and/or one or more electric/electronic devices. The chamber crosses at least one articulation axis. The case comprises a blind hole that is coaxial with the one axis and open outwards of the case. A second component has a pivot pivotable in the blind hole.

    摘要: The invention relates to a toothed wheel assembly for a cassette having a first toothed wheel and a second toothed wheel that are concentric. The second tooth wheel has a greater number of teeth than the first toothed wheel; a radially inner cylindrical portion to engage a sprocket support body; a plurality of spokes comprising respective first constraining portions to the first toothed wheel and second constraining portions to the radially inner cylindrical portion; and a plurality of connection bodies that connect the first. The second toothed wheel has an axially-extending portion with at least one pair of spokes having connection bodies that include axially-extending portions in the circumferential direction and at least partially contained in the minimum circumferential extension a respective spoke.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a motorized hub assembly for a bicycle wheel. The assembly has a hub shaft extending along a longitudinal axis with a cavity to receive a quick release axle. A bearing having a radially inner ring is arranged radially outside the hub shaft. A hub body is rotatably mounted on the hub shaft about the longitudinal axis and an electric motor is arranged inside the hub body. A routing opening for passage of electrical conductors for the electric motor pass through a routing opening arranged radially between the inner ring of the bearing and the hub shaft.

    摘要: A bicycle rear derailleur includes a limiter assembly arranged between (i) a first component selected between the support body and the chain guide and (ii) a first connecting arm, to define an extreme value of the internal angle of the articulated parallelogram at the vertex corresponding to the articulation axis shared by them. The limiter assembly has a first member on the first component and a second member on the first connecting arm, which is configured to abut the first member when the first component and the first connecting arm are rotated in the angular direction of approach of the first member to the second member. The second member extends along at least an intermediate section in the transverse direction of the first connecting arm.
