An operating device is provided for a human-powered vehicle. The operating device basically includes a base, a first operating member, a first electric switch, a first load generator and an operating load adjuster. The first operating member is movably arranged with respect to the base. The first electric switch is provided to the base and arranged to be activated by movement of the first operating member. The first load generator is configured to generate an operating load applied to the first operating member. The operating load adjuster is configured to adjust a transition of the operating load from a first load transition to a second load transition different from the first load transition.

A component assembly for a human-powered vehicle, the component assembly basically includes a member and a wire rod. The member includes a wall that has a first surface, a second surface opposite the first surface and an opening. The wire rod passes through the opening in the wall of the member. The wire rod includes a first portion located on the first surface side of the wall and a second portion located on the second surface side of the wall. The first portion includes an abutment portion that contacts the first surface adjacent the opening in the wall to suppress axial movement of the first portion of the wire rod through the opening in the wall with respect to an axial direction with respect to a center axis of the opening in the wall.

The invention relates to an electromechanical derailleur for mounting on a rear wheel axis. The derailleur has a stationary element, a pivoting mechanism, a movable element having a chain guide arrangement, and a gearing housing. The gearing housing receives an electromechanical drive for driving the pivoting mechanism. The stationary element defines a housing void in which the gearing housing is disposed, and has a fastener for a power source. The power source is fastened to the stationary element such that said power source is electrically connected to the electromechanical drive in the gearing housing.

A derailleur shifting system comprise a front derailleur, a rear derailleur, an operating device and a controller. The front derailleur is configured to be controlled to shift among front gear positions. The rear derailleur is configured to be controlled to shift among rear gear positions. The operating device is configured to generate an operational instruction associated with one or both of the front derailleur and the rear derailleur. The controller is configured to control one or both of the front derailleur and the rear derailleur to shift according to the operational instruction, an estimated gear position table and a gear position control table. The estimated gear position table comprises an estimated front gear position of the front derailleur and an estimated rear gear position of the rear derailleur, and the gear position control table comprises matching relationships between the front gear positions and the rear gear positions.

An operating device is basically provided with a base, a first operating member, a second operating member and an electric operating unit. The base is configured to mount the operating device to a handlebar. The base defines a mounting axis. The first operating member is pivotally arranged with respect to the base around a pivot axis. The second operating member is pivotally arranged with respect to the base around the pivot axis. The second operating member is a separate member from the first operating member. The electric operating unit is configured to be activated in response to a pivotal movement of the first operating member. The first operating member is arranged closer to the mounting axis than the electric operating unit.

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.
