Abstract: An electric power generator is provided for a human-powered vehicle. The electric power generator includes an axle, a stator, a rotor and a first electrical cable. The axle has a first axial end, and a second axial end. The stator has a first axial stator-end that faces the first axial end of the axle with respect to the rotational center axis and a second axial stator-end that faces the second axial end of the axle with respect to the rotational center axis. The rotor is rotatably mounted on the axle to rotate around a rotational center axis of the electric power generator. The first electrical cable is electrically connected to the stator on the first axial stator-end of the stator. The first electrical cable extends axially through the stator toward the second axial stator-end of the stator with respect to the rotational center axis.

Abstract: A bicycle part includes a housing and a lid. The housing includes an inner peripheral portion, an outer peripheral portion, an end wall portion and a connecting portion. The outer peripheral portion is spaced radially outward from the inner peripheral portion with respect to a center axis of the enclosed area. The end wall portion interconnects the inner peripheral portion and the outer peripheral portion to at least partly define an internal space. The connecting portion interconnects the inner peripheral portion and the outer peripheral portion. The lid overlies the internal space. The lid is welded to the inner peripheral portion along an inner weld path and the outer peripheral portion along an outer weld path. The lid is further welded to at least part of the connecting portion of the housing a connecting weld path connecting the inner weld path and the outer weld path.
