Abstract: A control device is provided for a human-powered vehicle that includes an operation detector that detects a first parameter correlated to a predetermined operation performed by a rider on the human-powered vehicle. The control device comprises an electronic controller and storage. The storage is configured to store the first parameter. The electronic controller is configured to store the first parameter in the storage. The operation detector is provided on at least one of a frame of the human-powered vehicle, a fork of the human-powered vehicle, a wheel of the human-powered vehicle, and a wheel axle of the human-powered vehicle. The predetermined operation includes at least one of a first operation in which the rider pushes a handlebar of the human-powered vehicle and a second operation in which the rider pulls the handlebar.

Abstract: A control device is provided for a human-powered vehicle that includes an operation detector that detects a first parameter correlated to a predetermined operation performed by a rider on the human-powered vehicle, a terrain detector that detects a second parameter correlated to terrain of a road on which the human-powered vehicle is traveling, and a travel detector that detects at least one of a traveling state and a traveling environment of the human-powered vehicle. The control device comprises an electronic controller and storage. The storage is configured to continuously store predetermined information that includes the first parameter and the second parameter. In a state where the storage is continuously storing the predetermined information, the storage controller is configured to stop the storage from continuously storing the predetermined information in accordance with an output from the travel detector.

Abstract: A method is performed for calculating an energy index related to traveling of a human-powered vehicle from a first parameter related to traveling of the human-powered vehicle at a first travel point and a second parameter related to traveling of the human-powered vehicle at a second travel point differing from the first travel point. The first parameter includes a first vehicle speed and a first altitude at the first travel point. The second parameter includes a second vehicle speed and a second altitude at the second travel point.

Abstract: A method is performed for controlling a human-powered vehicle. The method includes calculating a first movement amount of the human-powered vehicle on a road from at least one of a rotational speed of a wheel of the human-powered vehicle and a rotational amount of the wheel. The method further includes calculating a second movement distance in an advancing direction of the human-powered vehicle and a horizontal direction from the first movement distance and a pitch angle of the human-powered vehicle and calculating a third movement distance related to movement in the advancing direction of the human-powered vehicle and a vertical direction from the first movement distance and the pitch angle. The method further includes predicting a terrain of the road from the second movement distance and the third movement distance.

Abstract: A control device is provided for a human-powered vehicle that includes a suspension and an operation detector detecting a first parameter correlated to a predetermined operation performed by a rider on the human-powered vehicle. The operation detector includes an acceleration sensor provided on at least one of a wheel axle of the human-powered vehicle and a portion of the human-powered vehicle closer to the wheel axle than a moving portion of the suspension. The first parameter includes acceleration in a fore-aft direction of the human-powered vehicle. The control device includes an electronic controller. The electronic controller is configured to determine the predetermined operation based on the acceleration in the fore-aft direction. The predetermined operation includes at least one of a first operation in which the rider pushes a handlebar of the human-powered vehicle and a second operation in which the rider pulls the handlebar.
