An operating device for a bicycle is disclosed. The operating device includes a display ring and a coaxially arranged operating ring arranged to rotate relative to the display ring. The display ring includes a display for displaying information and a first magnetic element that cooperates with a second magnetic element arranged on or in the operating ring. In a first position of the operating ring relative to the display ring, the first magnetic element is proximate to the second magnetic element, and if the operating ring is rotated away from the first position, the first magnetic element and the second element magnetically cooperate to bias the operating ring back to the first position. The display ring further includes a sensor that receives a signal when in proximity of a signal providing element.

A cover system for a housing, such as a computing device housing, includes a channel defined by a housing and including each of a first opening and a second opening. The channel includes a first portion and a second portion separated by an aperture. During use, a protrusion of a cover is inserted through the aperture from the first portion of the channel into the second portion of the channel. The tip and aperture are sized such that the aperture retains the tip in the second portion of the channel after insertion. In the event the tip breaks off of the protrusion within the channel, each of the second portion and the second opening are sized and shaped to permit rapid removal of the tip from within the channel.

A bicycle operating apparatus for wirelessly controlling at least one component of a bicycle includes a carrier element on a fastening device for fixing the bicycle operating apparatus to a handlebar of the bicycle, a housing attachable to the carrier element having an energy storage compartment for receiving an energy storage element and having an electronic circuit arrangement in the housing. At least one switch is connected to the electronic circuit arrangement on the housing. An operating component mounted on the carrier element to be pivotable about an operating axis preloaded into a neutral position which is able to be deflected out of the neutral position in a first direction of rotation about the operating axis in order to actuate the switch, and the operating axis extends obliquely with respect to the flat outer surface.

A method, and a device that carries out the method, in which the proper holding and/or orientation of the display and/or control unit in the holding device for the carrying out of the further functions is provided.

A bicycle mountable storage device for stowing articles and broadcasting audio includes a container, which comprises a top piece that is hingedly engaged to a bottom piece. The bottom piece is mountable to a frame of a bicycle. A battery and a receiver are positioned in an interior space defined by the container. A speaker is engaged to the container and is operationally engaged to the battery. The receiver is operationally engaged to the battery and communicatively engaged to the speaker. The receiver receives an audio signal from an electronic device of a user and the speaker broadcasts the audio signal.

A holding structure for an optional component, the optional component configured to be added to a saddle-type vehicle, the holding structure includes a brace extending forward from a head pipe of a vehicle front portion, a plate supported from below by the brace, and a holder for the optional component provided on the plate. A periphery of a meter configured to display vehicle information is covered with a meter cover. The meter is supported by the plate so as to be exposed from the meter cover, and the optional component is held inside the meter cover by the holder.

A handlebar apparatus for a bicycle that includes an elongated housing having a proximal end and a distal end configured as handle portions that can be grabbed by hands of a cyclist for steering the bicycle. The apparatus further includes a transparent panel encased by the housing, an electronic device also housed in the housing, and a display coupled to the electronic device and juxtaposed to the transparent panel such that the display is visible from outside through the panel. The electronic device can connect an external computing device through a network.

A support structure for a meter stay applied to a saddled vehicle including a top bridge coupling upper ends of a left-right pair of front forks; a handle clamp supporting a steering handle above the top bridge; and a meter stay supporting a meter device, in which a shaft member extends downwardly and is positioned on a lower surface of the handle clamp; an elastic member is disposed to abut a lower surface of the top bridge; the meter stay is placed to be in contact with a lower surface of the elastic member; and the shaft member passes through the top bridge, the elastic member, and the meter stay in this order, with a fixing member being coupled to a distal end of the shaft member.

The invention relates to a super slim, form fitting, rechargeable and detachable safety device that spans the length of a bicycles, four wheeler, motorcycle, or scooters handlebars that cars and people cannot miss, day or night. It features an adaptable and flexible structure that conforms to the shape and length of one man, two, or four wheeled vehicles or body shapes. Instant invention can utilize sound, lighting or other sensory alerts to notify pedestrians and motorists of the presence of the motorist using it and also features connectivity for data exchange
