A bicycle crankarm provided with an electric/electronic system, including a battery power unit, a processor having a standby mode and a running mode, and a wake unit that emits a wake signal of the processor, wherein the wake unit is completely supported by or in the crankarm.

Bicycle crankarm provided with electric/electronic system

A process for manufacturing a bicycle component and a bicycle component manufactured by the process. The process includes protecting a printed circuit board, inserting the protected printed circuit board into the mold cavity, inserting a composite material into the mold cavity so it is around and in contact with the circuit board, and subjecting the mold cavity to a temperature and pressure profile until the composite material hardens.

Bicycle component made of composite material and related manufacturing process

A bicycle crankarm has a rechargeable battery cell and a recharging port for the battery cell in a face of the crankarm body.

Bicycle crankarm and related crankset

A wearable control unit for controlling a piece of equipment of a bicycle has a power source and a sensor powered by the power source. The sensor detects targets that are physically distinct and separate from the control unit and not electrically connected to the control unit by a wire. The control unit generates and emits an electrical command in response to a change of state of the sensor brought about by entry of the target into the sensor's detection range, and/or in response to the target exiting from the detection range of the sensor.

Bicycle control device

A bicycle manual control device for issuing at least one electric-electronic command to at least one piece of bicycle equipment, comprising a support body, configured to be fixed to the bicycle, at least one manual actuation member supported in a movable manner by the support body, and on-board electronics having a standby mode and an operating mode, further comprising a detector of movement of the bicycle configured to emit a wake signal to bring said on-board electronics from standby mode to operating mode. A bicycle electronic system including the bicycle manual control device is also disclosed.

Bicycle manual control device and bicycle electronic system

A bicycle control device for issuing at least one command to at least one bicycle equipment comprises a body configured to be mounted on the bicycle, at least one manual actuation member associated with the body, and a clicking mechanism. The clicking mechanism comprises a magnetic clicking switch having a first element that is fixed with respect to the body, and a second element that is movable with respect to the first element and actuatable by said at least one manual actuation member when said manual actuation member issues said command.
