BICYCLE POWER SUPPLYING DEVICE AND BICYCLE ELECTRIC DEVICE INCLUDING BICYCLE POWER SUPPLYING DEVICE
A bicycle power supplying device is configured to easily obtain the power needed to drive a subject electric component and a bicycle electric device that includes the bicycle power supplying device. The bicycle power supplying device includes a holder and a power storage unit. The holder holds a dry cell so that the dry cell is attachable to and removable from the holder. The dry cell includes a body, a first electrode arranged on the body, and a second electrode arranged on the body. The power storage unit is configured to store power of the dry cell and supply the stored power to a subject electric component.
REAR DERAILLEUR
An embodiment of the invention provides an electromechanical rear derailleur for a bicycle including a base member that is configured to be coupled to a frame member of a bicycle. The derailleur includes a movable member and a link mechanism that movably couples the movable member to the base member. A motor is positioned at the movable member to move the movable member.
BICYCLE CONTROL DEVICE
A bicycle control device for issuing at least one command to at least one bicycle equipment comprises a body configured to be mounted on the bicycle, at least one manual actuation member associated with the body, and a clicking mechanism. The clicking mechanism comprises a magnetic clicking switch having a first element that is fixed with respect to the body, and a second element that is movable with respect to the first element and actuatable by said at least one manual actuation member when said manual actuation member issues said command.

Multi-sprocket arrangement for a bicycle
A multi-sprocket arrangement for a rear wheel hub of a bicycle may have improved gearshift characteristics, reduced vibrations during skewed running, and improved wear characteristics. The multi-sprocket arrangement includes a multiplicity of sprockets of different diameters, wherein at least one of the sprockets has a multiplicity of teeth. Also on the circumference of said sprocket, as viewed in a circumferential direction, at least one sequence of teeth is provided in which, with regard to their material thickness, a thin tooth is followed by a thick tooth which is followed in turn by another thin tooth. The sprocket has an impression and/or a passage recess which form at least one gearshift path and permit a shift between two adjacent sprockets.
BEARING, METHOD OF PREPARING THE SAME AND BICYCLE COMPONENT
A bearing includes a first annular member, a second annular member, and a plurality of rolling members. A receiving space is formed between the second annular member and the first annular member. The rolling members are disposed in the receiving space. The first annular member, the second annular member, and the rolling members are rotatable relative to one another. A damping grease is filled in the receiving space and is arranged between the rolling members to provide a damping force while the bearing is rotating. A viscosity of the damping grease ranges between 200 cSt and 200000 cSt.

Bicycle hub and flywheel structure
An improved wheel hub may include a hub body, a freewheel unit, a connecting sleeve and an external freewheel. The connecting sleeve connects to the ratchet sleeve of the hub body in order to provide more space for the external freewheel. With the design of the connecting sleeve and the external freewheel unit, the hub body loaded with more smaller freewheels provides more pedaling speeds for a bicycle travelling downhill. When cycling downhill by using the smaller diameters of the sprockets, the smaller sprockets of the external freewheel can help a cyclist to maintain an optimum pedaling speed in a slopy terrain, and the speed of the bicycle can be easily controlled.

BICYCLE HUB ASSEMBLY
A bicycle hub assembly comprises a hub axle, a hub shell, a sprocket support body, a first ratchet member, a second ratchet member, and a sliding member. The hub shell includes at least one first tooth. The sprocket support body includes a first helical spline. The first ratchet member comprises at least one first ratchet tooth and a second helical spline engaged with the first helical spline. The second ratchet member comprises at least one second ratchet tooth and at least one second tooth. The at least one second ratchet tooth is engageable with the at least one first ratchet tooth. The at least one second tooth is engaged with the at least one first tooth. The sliding member is provided between the sprocket support body and the second ratchet member in an axial direction parallel to a rotational axis. The sliding member includes a non-metallic material.
