Abstract: A bicycle control device comprises a bracket member including a first end portion and a second end portion with a saddle portion provided in between the first end portion and the second end portion for gripping. The second end portion has a pair of spaced apart walls with opposed surfaces. The control device further comprises a lever pivotally provided around a pivot axis extending between the opposed surfaces. The lever includes a protruding portion extending in an axial direction of the pivot axis to an outermost point that is at least 23.2 mm offset from a reference plane parallel to a bicycle center plane and defined at a midpoint between the opposed surfaces, as viewed from a parallel direction parallel to the reference plane.

Abstract: A bicycle disc brake rotor comprises a friction member and a cooling member. The friction member includes at least one friction surface and a first inner peripheral edge. The cooling member includes a cooling body. The cooling body includes at least one cooling surface and a second inner peripheral edge. The second inner peripheral edge is provided radially inward of the first inner peripheral edge with respect to a rotational center axis of the bicycle disc brake rotor. The radially outer part is provided radially outward of the cooling body. The second inner peripheral edge is offset from the radially outer part in an axial direction parallel to the rotational center axis of the bicycle disc brake rotor.

Abstract: A bicycle operating device comprises a base member, a user interface member, an electrical switch, and a transmitting structure. The user interface member is movably mounted to the base member to move relative to the base member in a first direction. The electrical switch is mounted to the base member. The transmitting structure is provided between the user interface member and the electrical switch to transmit a first movement of the user interface member in the first direction to the electrical switch in a second direction different from the first direction.
