BICYCLE DERAILLEUR AND BICYCLE REAR DERAILLEUR
A bicycle derailleur comprises a base member, a movable member, a motor unit, and a controller. The controller is configured to control the motor unit to rotate an output shaft of the motor unit at a first maximum voltage during a first shifting operation of the chain in a first shifting direction. The controller is configured to control the motor unit to rotate the output shaft of the motor unit at a second maximum voltage during a second shifting operation of the chain in a second shifting direction. The first maximum voltage is different from the second maximum voltage. The bicycle derailleur is configured to receive electricity from an electric power source configured to supply electricity to an assist driving unit.

ELECTRICAL DEVICE AND SYSTEM FOR HUMAN-POWERED VEHICLE
An electrical device for a system of a human-powered vehicle comprises a controller. The controller is configured to selectively act, based on reference information relating to the system, as each of a master controller and a slave controller. The master controller is configured to transmit a first control signal to a different slave controller of a different electrical device of the system. The different slave controller is configured to be operated in response to the first control signal. The slave controller is configured to be operated in response to a second control signal transmitted from a different master controller of a different electrical device of the system.
Bicycle rear derailleur
A bicycle rear derailleur includes a base member including a mounting portion configured to be attached to a bicycle frame, the mounting portion having a mounting opening through which a central axis of a hub axle passes in a mounting state of the bicycle rear derailleur. The mounting portion includes a single joint or is free of any joint. Also included is a movable member movably coupled relative to the base member and a linkage structure operatively connecting the movable member to the base member. Also included is at least one of a motor, a first wireless communication unit, and an electrical connector. The at least one of the motor, the first wireless communication unit, and the electrical connector are disposed on at least one of the base member, the movable member, and the linkage structure.

BICYCLE CONTROL SYSTEM
A bicycle with an electric pedal assist motor capable of driving a chainring independent of cranks includes wheel speed sensors and crank cadence sensors. The wheel speed sensors and the crank cadence sensors measure wheel speed and crank cadence, respectively, and provide the measured wheel speed and crank cadence to controller of the bicycle. The controller activates motor overdrive based on the measured wheel speed and/or the measured crank cadence.
ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND ELECTRONIC SYSTEM
An electronic device is configured to suitably control of a human-powered vehicle component. The electronic device includes a communicator configured to wirelessly communicate with a pressure detector detecting pressure of at least one tire of the human-powered vehicle. The electronic device is provided in a human-powered vehicle component including at least one of a transmission mounted to the human-powered vehicle, a suspension mounted to the human-powered vehicle, and an adjustable seatpost mounted to the human-powered vehicle.
HUMAN-POWERED VEHICLE CONTROL DEVICE
A human-powered vehicle control device is configured to automatically control a suspension and an adjustable seatpost to a suitable state. The human-powered vehicle control device includes an electronic controller configured to control at least one of the suspension and the adjustable seatpost mounted to the human-powered vehicle upon detection of an inclined state of the human-powered vehicle based on a change in pressure of at least one tire of the human-powered vehicle. The pressure of the at least one tire is detected by a pressure detector configured to detect pressure of the at least one tire of the human-powered vehicle.
HUMAN-POWERED VEHICLE CONTROL DEVICE
A human-powered vehicle control device is configured to control a derailleur in a suitable state. The human-powered vehicle control device includes an electronic controller configured to control a derailleur mounted to a human-powered vehicle based on a change in pressure of a tire detected by a pressure detector detecting the pressure of at least one tire of the human-powered vehicle.
