A mount for a control device for a bicycle includes a securing portion disposable at least partially around an outer surface of a handlebar of the bicycle, a housing portion extending away from the securing portion, and a cavity within at least the housing portion, the control device being disposable within the cavity, wherein the housing portion includes a shoulder that defines an opening through the housing portion to the cavity, such that an opening size of the opening is smaller than an opening size of the cavity.

A grip for a bike is disclosed, which comprises a body, a sleeve and a cap. The body has a hollow tube and at least one connector. The hollow tube installs the body onto one of a handle of the bike. The connector extends axially along a lengthwise portion of the body from another end of the body. The sleeve covers the hollow tube. The cap overlies the connector and connecting toward the sleeve to form an inner space. Accordingly, the grip of the present disclosure provides a mean of modular connections for a handle of a bike, which achieves a high degree of customization flexibility and easy assembly advantages.

A lever system using a linkage assembly creates linear movement from a rotational movement of a lever. The lever system may be arranged as a grip assembly to activate a braking system of a vehicle. The linkage assembly may include a slide linkage, a bearing linkage, and a pivot linkage such that the lever may cause an end of the bearing linkage and an end of the pivot linkage to move toward the slide linkage, which causes the slide linkage to move in a linear direction. The grip assembly may have a lever that is pivotally connected with a housing of the grip assembly at a predetermined distance and with a contact region to prevent rotational movement in one direction while allowing rotational movement in the opposite direction. Further, the grip assembly may include a bearing linkage that is pivotally connected to the lever.

Disclosed is a thumb switch for operating a mobile communication device and/or electric components of a vehicle, said thumb switch comprising a housing, on which at least one operating element is arranged. In order to allow for ease of operation, the thumb switch has communication electronics for generating control signals for functions that can be carried out on the mobile communication device and/or on at least one electrical component of the vehicle. The invention further relates to control system comprising such a thumb switch.
