A connection system (1) for connecting a small vehicle (3) to a base station (2), comprising a first locking part (20) for installation on the base station (2) or the small vehicle (3), having a first securing unit (21), a second locking part (30), for installation on the small vehicle (3) or the base station (2), having a second securing unit (31); wherein the first locking part (20) and the second locking part (30) are designed for connection to one another, wherein the first securing unit (21) is selectively switchable between a release state and a locked state, wherein the first securing unit (21) and the second securing unit (31) are designed, more particularly complementarily designed, so that separation of the interconnected first and second locking parts (20, 30) is prevented in the locked state.

A tiltable vehicle is configured to transform between an autonomous mode and a rideable mode by pivoting the handlebars and steering column of the vehicle about a pitch axis. In the autonomous mode, the steering column is folded back toward the chassis and a tiltable chassis of the vehicle is prevented from tilting. In the rideable mode, the steering column is unfolded and the chassis is free to tilt. In some examples, a tiltable vehicle includes features beneficial for vehicle-sharing, such as parking devices or a basket. These features may be included on any suitable vehicle and are not limited to use on transforming vehicles.

A hub assembly is provided for a human-powered vehicle. The hub assembly includes a hub axle, a hub body, a cable and a cable protector. The hub axle has a first axial end and a second axial end. The hub body is rotatably mounted on the hub axle to rotate around a rotational center axis of the hub assembly. The cable has a first portion disposed inside of the hub assembly and a second portion disposed outside of the hub assembly. The cable protector is movably arranged between a first position and a second position. The second portion of the cable extends along the rotational center axis where the cable protector is in the first position. The second portion of the cable being at least partly restrained in an angled position with respect to the rotational center axis where the cable protector is in the second position.

The invention relates to a device for energy recovery in bicycles with a mid-mounted motor drive unit and at least one rear wheel, comprising a first component that is connected to an element of the rear wheel hub or the rear wheel, such that a rotation of the rear wheel is transmitted to the first component, regardless of the direction of rotation, an energy-transmission device interacting with the first component, a recuperation element that interacts with the energy-transmission device, and a generator that interacts with the recuperation element to recover the rotational energy of the rotational movement of the rear wheel.
