A sterilization method for a vehicle sterilization system, comprising: receiving a detection signal, and determining whether a seat cushion of a vehicle covers a space of a compartment according to a voltage level of the detection signal; when the seat cushion does not completely cover the space of the compartment, controlling a power supply unit to stop supplying power; when the seat cushion covers the space of the compartment, controlling the power supply unit to supply power to a sterilization device.

A control device of a bicycle includes an actuator and a first controller. The first controller is configured to generate and transmit, from the first controller to a second controller of the bicycle, messages for a predetermined time period at a first transmission rate in response to activation of the actuator. The first controller is further configured to, after the predetermined period of time, generate and transmit, from the first controller to the second controller, one or more messages at a second transmission rate until the actuator is deactivated. The first transmission rate is greater than the second transmission rate, and each of the messages includes data identifying the activation of the actuator.

An electronic shift control system includes a first bicycle control device including a first housing, a first brake lever, and a first switch configured to generate a first signal when actuated. The electronic shift control system additionally includes a second bicycle control device including a second housing, a second brake lever, and a second switch configured to generate a second signal when actuated. The first bicycle control device is configured to wirelessly transmit both the first signal and the second signal.

There is provided a straddle type vehicle including: an engine; a fuel tank configured to store fuel to be supplied to the engine; a power generator driven by the engine; a regulator disposed below the fuel tank and configured to adjust electric power supplied from the power generator to a battery; and a regulator cover that includes a side wall covering the regulator on an outer side in a vehicle width direction and an upper wall covering an upper side of the regulator. The upper wall is formed below a side lower edge of the fuel tank to extend from an inner side to the outer side in the vehicle width direction with respect to the side lower edge.

A bicycle equipment is provided, including an electric power supply unit electrically connected to a first electric connector; a first component; a second component with an electrically powered device and a second connector. A through hole is provided in the first or second component. An electric connector assembly includes a third connector matching the first connector and permanently connected to the first component at a seat for the electric power supply unit; a fourth connector matching the second connector; and an electric cable extending between the third connector and the fourth connector. The through hole, the third connector and the fourth connector are sized such that the fourth connector may pass, in at least one orientation thereof, in the through hole and the third connector may not pass in the through hole.

A control device is provided for a human-powered vehicle that includes a generator configured to output electrical power, an electric power storage device electrically connected to the generator, and a component having an actuator actuated by electrical power from at least one of the generator and the electric power storage device. The control device includes a controller electrically connected to at least one of the generator and the electric power storage device. The controller is configured to control an operation state of the component in accordance with information relating to at least one of an output state of the generator and a store state of the electric power storage device.
