A shifting system for a human-powered vehicle comprises a controller. The controller is configured to receive a driving torque and a cadence of the human-powered vehicle from at least one sensor. The controller is configured to determine a permitted shift timing based on the driving torque and the cadence. The controller is further configured to control a shift mechanism to perform a gear shift during the permitted shift timing in accordance with a permitted cadence range and a first threshold of the driving torque.

A shifting controller controls a shifting device of a human-powered vehicle and includes a data acquisition interface, a data storage device, and a control unit. The data acquisition interface is configured to acquire a first reference value of a first variable in relation to the human-powered vehicle. The data storage device has stored therein a shifting condition specified by at least one of a direction of change, an amount of change, and a rate of change that are information on a change in the first variable. The control unit includes a processor that is configured to control the shifting device based on a change in the first reference value and the shifting condition.

The data acquisition interface is configured to acquire a first reference value of a first variable in relation to the human-powered vehicle. The data storage device has stored therein a shifting condition specified by at least one of a direction of change, an amount of change, and a ratio of change that are information on a change in the first variable. The control unit includes a processor that is configured to control the shifting device based on a change in the first reference value and the shifting condition.

A control device includes an electronic controller configured to control a transmission to shift a transmission ratio of a human-powered vehicle in accordance with a first shifting condition set based on a first reference value. The electronic controller is configured to control the transmission to restrict shifting of the transmission ratio of the human-powered vehicle regardless of the first shifting condition upon determining a second shifting condition set based on a second reference value is satisfied. The second reference value includes at least one of a reference value indicating an acceleration tendency of the human-powered vehicle and a reference value indicating a deceleration tendency of the human-powered vehicle.

A detector for a bicycle that includes a magnet, which generates a generated magnetic field, and a magnetic field sensor. The mutual position of the magnet and of the sensor is fixed, and the sensor is immersed in the generated magnetic field. A length of a path intended for a non-diamagnetic movable element is immersed in the generated magnetic field; if in said path length there is at least one actual portion of the movable element, the sensor detects the magnetic field perturbed by the actual portion of the movable element. Bicycle equipment and a bicycle derailleur are also described.

A control device is provided for a human-powered vehicle. The control device is basically provided with a controller. The controller is configured to be connected to at least one component of the human-powered vehicle such that the controller is free from executing normal activation of the at least one component in accordance to a first input in a first mode. The controller is configured to operate at least one of an actuator and an indicator in accordance to the first input in a second mode. The first mode is switched into the second mode in accordance to a second input different from the first input.

A method for training an automatic gear unit of a two-wheeled vehicle and/or a device, as well as a two-wheeled vehicle having such a device modifies an existing characteristic map for the control of the gear unit based on the individual user information. Optionally, it is also possible to set up a characteristic map for the control of the gear unit with the aid of the method in that the user information is recorded during gear-change operations and utilized for further automatic gear-change operations.
