A method of operating an anti-lock braking system (ABS) of a bicycle comprising steps of: judging whether a power of a battery meets a set value; judging a moved angular position of a brake lever; outputting electric currents to operate the ABS; and judging whether a running speed of the bicycle is zero. When the power meets the set value, the ABS is turned on, and when the power of the battery is low, the ABS is not turned on. After the brake lever is pressed, the control unit judges whether the moved angular position of the brake lever reaches a set position. When the moved angular position does not reach the set position, the ABS is not turned on. When the moved angular angle reaches the set position, the ABS is turned on. The control unit outputs the electric currents to turn on the ABS, thus braking the bicycle.

A bicycle rear derailleur includes a movable member and a chain guide assembly rotatably connected to the movable member. The bicycle rear derailleur also includes a pivot member non-rotatably coupled to the chain guide assembly and having an outer annular surface, a biasing device configured to bias the chain guide assembly in a first rotational direction relative to the movable member, and a damper device disposed between the chain guide assembly and the movable member. The damper device is operable to apply a damping force to the chain guide assembly when the chain guide assembly rotates in a second rotational direction relative to the movable member. The damper device includes a friction device that is radially inner relative to the biasing device. The friction device includes a friction member having at least one friction surface biased against and in frictional engagement with the pivot member.

A shock-absorbing front fork assembly of a motorcycle includes a front fork, a pressure buffering cylinder and a control valve disposed between the front fork and the pressure buffering cylinder and electrically connected with a brake system to control the communication between the front fork and the pressure buffering cylinder according to the operation of the brake system. When the brake system is not actuated, the control valve is open to make the front fork communicate with the pressure buffering cylinder, thereby making the spring supporting force relatively smaller. When the brake system is actuated, the control valve is close to make the front fork not communicate with the pressure buffering cylinder, thereby making the spring supporting force relatively larger. Therefore, the spring supporting force is adjusted by the brake operation, that raises the riding comfort and safety.

A hydraulic braking device includes an engaging base, a hydraulic brake, and a locking device. The hydraulic brake is provided on the engaging base. The locking device is adapted to fix the engaging base on a suspension fork of a bicycle, and includes a bolt and a handle, wherein the bolt passes through the engaging base to be screwed into a tapped hole of the suspension fork. The handle has a cam-shaped head pivotally connected to the bolt, and is pivotable between a first position and a second position. When the handle is located at the first position, the head presses against the engaging base to fix the engaging base on the suspension fork. When the handle is located at the second position, the engaging base is no longer being pressed against by the head, whereby the engaging base is movable relative to the suspension fork.

A power meter for a bicycle includes a body having a torque input section and a torque output section, the body configured to transmit power between the torque input section and the torque output section. The power meter also includes a printed circuit board (“PCB”) having a substrate and at least one strain measurement device which may be attached to the PCB.

An automatic control device for a motorcycle including a control device that automatically controls an automatic cruise control system and a brake system including a front wheel brake and a rear wheel brake includes a brake temperature detection unit that detects a brake temperature. The control device varies operation states of the front wheel brake and the rear wheel brake according to the brake temperature during automatic cruise control. At a time of deceleration in a case where the brake temperature during the automatic cruise control is low, the control device raises the brake temperature by reducing an engine brake of a power unit of a vehicle and increasing operation frequencies of the front wheel brake and the rear wheel brake.
