Actuating device with collapsible lever
A brake or clutch actuating lever is rotatably connected to a support structure. An adjustment lever, mechanically distinct from the actuating lever, transmits the angular actuation stroke of the actuating lever to a brake or clutch actuation unit. The adjustment lever comprises a mechanism for adjusting the rest position of the adjustment lever, mechanically separate from the actuating lever.
Control device for a bicycle and bicycle comprising such a device
A control device for a bicycle, has a first body adapted to be attached to a bicycle handlebar, at least one control member of at least one bicycle component, and a second body, distinct from the first body, connected to the first body to increase a grip surface of the control device and/or to vary the relative position of the at least one control member with respect to the handlebar of the bicycle, so as to adapt the control device to the size of the cyclist's hand.

Switching roller finger follower with rapid transition from locked to unlocked mode and method thereof
A switching roller finger follower, including: a body including a locking barrel arranged to receive pressurized fluid; a first chamber partially enclosed by the body; at least one arm rotatably connected to the body; and a locking mechanism. The locking mechanism includes: a locking pin at least partially disposed in the first chamber; and a shuttle assembly including a shuttle pin and a check valve. The shuttle pin: is at least partially disposed in the locking barrel; includes a through-bore in communication with the first chamber; and is displaceable, in response to the pressurized fluid, to engage and disengage the locking pin with the at least one arm. The check valve is arranged to enable flow of the pressurized fluid through the through-bore to the first chamber.
