    摘要: A bicycle gear changing control apparatus includes a controller that is programmed to control a gear changing state of a bicycle transmission according to an operation of a gear changing operating device upon determining a bicycle traveling speed is greater than a first speed. The controller controls the transmission automatically to be in a first prescribed gear changing state upon determining the bicycle traveling speed becomes less than or equal to the first speed and upon determining a gear ratio of a current gear changing state of the transmission is larger than a preset gear ratio of the first prescribed gear changing state. The controller controls the transmission automatically, after controlling the transmission to be in the first prescribed gear changing state, to a larger gear ratio than the gear ratio of the first prescribed gear changing state, upon determining the bicycle traveling speed becomes greater than a second speed.

    摘要: A bicycle rear sprocket assembly comprises a plurality of sprocket members and a supporting member. The plurality of sprocket members have a rotational center axis. The plurality of sprocket members are arranged in an axial direction parallel to the rotational center axis. The plurality of sprocket members each include a sprocket body and a plurality of sprocket teeth. The plurality of sprocket teeth extend radially outwardly from the sprocket body with respect to the rotational center axis. The supporting member is a separate member from the plurality of sprocket members. The supporting member includes a supporting portion and a hub engagement portion. The supporting portion is configured to support the plurality of sprocket members. The sprocket body of each of the plurality of sprocket members is attached to the supporting portion of the supporting member without using a separate metallic fastening member.

    摘要: A bicycle bottom bracket assembly having a rotational central axis includes a support member, a bearing unit and a radially inward force reducing structure. The support member includes a hanger mounting portion and a bearing mounting portion. The bearing mounting portion is configured to be at least partly positioned within a hanger part of a bicycle frame. The bearing unit includes an outer race, an inner race and at least one roller element disposed between the outer and inner races in a radial direction with respect to the rotational central axis. The outer race is fixed to the bearing mounting portion of the support member. The radially inward force reducing structure reduces a radially inward force being transmitted to the bearing unit.

    摘要: A bicycle control apparatus is basically configured to control at least one shifting device having a plurality of gear stages. The bicycle control apparatus includes a shifting input device, at least one detection sensor and a controller. The at least one detection sensor detects the gear stage of the at least one shifting device. The controller controls the at least one shifting device. The controller controls the at least one shifting device to upshift or to downshift in a state in which the detected gear stage matches a prescribed condition, upon receiving the prescribed shift command is input via the shifting input device.
