A motorcycle, including method and control unit for controlling an active steering influence system, which is for actively influencing steering motions on a front wheel. A driver assistance system is for effectuating, with control instructions to components of the motorcycle, longitudinal accelerations. The driver assistance and active steering influence systems are for a signal communication with each other, e.g., via lines. The driver assistance system is for outputting, before/while outputting a control instruction, a signal instruction to the active steering influence system so that the active steering influence system, via an active modification of its state, counters a change of a movement direction, which is associated with the longitudinal acceleration to be effectuated with the control instruction. Accordingly, driving comfort or safety while riding is improve-able, in that, for example, fishtailing or wobbling motions, which are unexpected and are initiated by interventions of driver assistance system, are largely prevented.

An bicycle includes a frame assembly having a head tube and a fork having a steerer tube mounted for rotation in the head tube. The bicycle further includes wheels supporting the frame assembly, and a component line positioned at least partially in the head tube and between the head tube and the steerer tube. The bicycle further includes a protector positioned in the head tube and separating the component line from the steerer tube.

A supporting structure (100) for phonic wheel sensor (200) and brake caliper (300), comprises: a main body (1) fastened or which can be fastened to a stem of a fork (F) of a motorbike; a wheel support (2) connected to said main body (1) for supporting a wheel of the motorbike; and an extension (3) which develops from said main body (1) and comprises a fastening device (30) for a brake caliper (300). Two pass-through openings (31, 32) are formed in said extension (3), a first pass-through opening (31) for housing the phonic wheel sensor (200) and a second pass-through opening (32) for the passage of a cable (201) of the phonic wheel sensor (200).

A brake control device includes an electronic controller that executes an ABS control on a rotating body of a human-powered vehicle. The electronic controller executes the ABS control based on a relationship between a first speed and a second speed related to the human-powered vehicle. The first speed includes a speed of the human-powered vehicle based on information of a traveling environment. The second speed includes a speed of the human-powered vehicle based on a rotational speed of the rotating body.

A brake control device includes an electronic controller that controls a brake unit configured to brake a rotation body of a human-powered vehicle. The electronic controller limits ABS control in a case where a first predetermined condition for executing ABS control and a second predetermined condition for limiting ABS control are satisfied. The second predetermined condition is set based on limitation information that differs from information related to a traveling speed of the human-powered vehicle.

A method for bicycle fitting includes receiving evaluation factors based on one or more scenario parameters; positioning at least one of a saddle and a handlebar to one or more positions when a user is pedaling; determining values for the evaluation factors according to data received from one or more sensors at the one or more positions; and processing the values to identify one or more recommended positions for the saddle or the handlebar.

A vehicle control system includes: a vehicle including an operation device; a first communication device; and a second communication device. In a case in which the first communication device is positioned in a first area containing a position of the vehicle, the vehicle operates in an operation waiting state in which the operation device is allowed to receive an operation. In a case in which the second communication device is positioned in a second area contained in the first area and smaller than the first area, the vehicle operates in the operation waiting state. In a case in which the first communication device is positioned in the first area and the second communication device is positioned in the second area, the second communication device generates a notification indicating that the vehicle is in the operation waiting state.

The field of the invention relates to bicycle systems, especially to bicycle systems adapted for use with smartphones, to smartphones configured for use with bicycle systems, and to methods and to computer software for use with such bicycle systems or smartphones, and to servers configured to communicate with such bicycle systems or smartphones. According to a first aspect of the invention, there is provided a bicycle system including a bicycle, the bicycle system including a processor integral to the bicycle, the bicycle system further including a battery integral to the bicycle, wherein the processor is powerable by the battery, the bicycle system including a smartphone holder configurable to receive a smartphone and to connect the smartphone to the processor, wherein in use the smartphone holder is attachable to, and detachable from, the smartphone. Advantages include that the smartphone can be charged by the battery, the smartphone can communicate with the processor so as to receive various information such as maintenance-related information of the bicycle system, the bicycle system can investigate the smartphone identity to check for unauthorized use of the bicycle system, the smartphone is held during bicycle system travel which reduces the risk of damage to the smartphone, and the bicycle system shape is more aerodynamic than that of a bicycle to which a processor and/or a battery has merely been bolted-on.
