Operating system and electrical switch device for human-powered vehicle
An electrical switch device includes an electrical switch unit, a wireless communicator, a power source, an electrical cable, and a connecting part. The electrical switch unit is at least partly disposed outside of a handlebar. The wireless communicator is inserted to an internal space of the handlebar. The power source and the wireless communicator are separated away from the electrical switch unit and arranged at different positions from the electrical switch unit. The electrical cable is configured to electrically connect the electrical switch unit to the wireless communicator and the power supply. The connecting part is electrically connected to the electrical cable. The connecting part is configured to electrically and detachably connect the electrical switch unit to the wireless communicator and the power supply.
COMPONENT AND COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
A component is configured to be mounted on a human-powered vehicle. The component includes a communication device. The communication device is configured to receive predetermined information sent from a transmission device of the human-powered vehicle. The predetermined information includes at least some of first information that the transmission device receives from an operating device mounted to the human-powered vehicle.
Gerbilling-proof mono wheel vehicle
A gerbilling-proof monowheel vehicle comprises: (a) a wheel felloe with a tire thereon; (b) a frame rotatably mounted within the wheel felloe; the frame carrying a passenger seat; (c) moving means configured for propelling the gerbilling-proof monowheel vehicle; and (d) braking means configured for decelerating the gerbilling-proof monowheel vehicle. The gerbilling-proof monowheel further comprises at least two auxiliary wheels side-mounted on the frame for vertically stabilizing the passenger seat and preventing the gerbilling-proof monowheel from side tipover and maintaining said passenger seat in a horizontal position within said wheel felloe.

METHOD AND DEVICE FOR CARRYING OUT A DISTANCE OR SPEED-REGULATING FUNCTION FOR A SINGLE-TRACK MOTOR VEHICLE
A method for carrying out a distance-regulating or speed-regulating function for a single-track motor vehicle. An activated distance-regulating or speed-regulating function can be deactivated by the driver through actuation of a brake operating element, if the actuation intensity of the brake operating element exceeds a first threshold value. The presence of a collision risk is ascertained by an environmental sensor system. When there is a risk of collision, an emergency braking assistance function is activated through the actuation of the brake operating element by the driver with an actuation intensity exceeding a second threshold value. The second threshold value is lower than the first threshold value. The activated distance-regulating or speed-regulating function is continued independently of the driver after the termination of the emergency braking assistance function, with the settings that were present before the activation of the emergency braking assistance function.

Motorcycle
A motorcycle includes: a front wheel brake that brakes a front wheel that is supported by a front fork; a rear wheel brake; a control unit that controls an ABS modulator connected to the front wheel brake and the rear wheel brake on the basis of front wheel speed and rear wheel speed; and a front wheel rise detection unit that detects whether the front wheel is likely to rise from a road surface, wherein when the front wheel rise detection unit detects that the front wheel is likely to rise, the control unit operates the front wheel brake through the ABS modulator.
