A three-wheeled electric vehicle in accordance with EU vehicle classification L2e-U, which has two electric-motor-driven rear wheels, each of which is driven by one wheel-hub motor. A hydraulically actuatable rear-wheel disc-brake system is mounted on each rear wheel which brake system is also fitted with an integrated electromechanical parking brake, the activation of which shifts each rear wheel into a parking-brake mode in which wheel rotation is prevented. In a rear portion, the vehicle body forms a support structure on which an optionally present, exchangeable transport container can be supported and secured with the aid of a quick-release fastening system. The quick-release fastening system includes one or more connection device(s), wherein each connection device includes a bar that protrudes from a bottom wall of the transport container; and a locking device, which is permanently attached to the support structure, is fitted with a movable blocking element.

A traveling apparatus includes a frame, a wheel body, a rotating shaft, and a brake assembly. The wheel body is rotatably arranged on the frame, and is configured to roll on a bearing surface. The rotating shaft is connected to the frame, and the brake assembly is rotatably arranged on the rotating shaft. On a rotation path of the brake assembly, the brake assembly has an idle position in which the brake assembly defines a gap with a working surface of the wheel body, and a brake position in which the brake assembly is configured to be in contact with the working surface of the wheel body. The working surface is a surface of the wheel body configured to be in contact with the bearing surface.

A hydraulic pressure control unit capable of suppressing application of an external force thereto in comparison with the related art at the time when mounted to a straddle-type vehicle is obtained.

A hydraulic pressure control unit (1) includes: a base body (10) formed with an internal channel through which a brake fluid flows; an inlet valve and an outlet valve that open/close the internal channel during anti-lock brake control; a first coil (61) as a drive source of the inlet valve; a second coil as a drive source of the outlet valve; and a circuit board (36) that is electrically connected to the first coil (61) and a second coil and controls energization of the first coil (61) and the second coil. The base body (10) is held to a front fork (216). When the straddle-type vehicle to which the hydraulic pressure control unit (1) is mounted is seen in a front view, the circuit board (36) is located behind the front fork (216) and the base body (10), and the first coil (61) and the second coil are erected from a rear surface of the base body (10).

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.

A bicycle can include a forward frame triangle that can include a top tube, a bottom tube, a bottom bracket, a structural seat tube, a compliant seat tube, and a pair of seat stays. The top tube can have a first end connected to a head tube and a second end. The bottom tube can have a first end connected to the head tube. The bottom bracket can be connected to the bottom tube. The structural seat tube can be connected to the bottom bracket and the top tube. The compliant seat tube can extend in an upward direction from the bottom bracket to the top tube and within the structural seat tube. The compliant seat tube can be coupled to the forward frame triangle such that the compliant seat post can bend within the structural seat tube.
