An information processing device includes an input device and an artificial intelligence processor. First information related to a human-powered vehicle is input to the input device. The artificial intelligence processor is configured to generate second information related to at least one of deterioration, wear, and failure of an element of the human-powered vehicle from history information of the first information input to the input device.

Information processing device

An electronic device is related to a human-powered vehicle operating device that includes an operating mechanism, which is for operating at least one of a human-powered vehicle transmission device and a human-powered vehicle braking device, and at least one operating member. The electronic device comprises a storage, an electronic controller, and a communication unit. The storage stores setting information related to an operation of the at least one operating member and to an output destination device. The electronic controller is configured to generate an output signal corresponding to the operation of the at least one operating member based on the setting information. The communication unit transmits the output signal to the output destination device that includes at least one of a game device, a training device, an audio device, and a video device.

A bicycle component is basically provided with a wireless electrical power transmission arrangement and a wireless communication arrangement. The wireless electrical power transmission arrangement has a power transmitter and a power receiver to wirelessly transfer electrical power from the power transmitter to the power receiver. The wireless communication arrangement has a first communication unit and a second communication unit. The first and second communication units are spaced apart to wirelessly communicate from one of the first and second communication units to the other of the first and second communication units. The wireless communication arrangement is spaced from the wireless electrical power transmission arrangement by a prescribed distance that is larger than 5.0 mm.

A rear derailleur is basically provided with a base member, a movable member, a chain guide, a friction element, a one-way clutch and an electric actuator. The base member is configured to be mounted to a bicycle. The movable member is movably coupled to the base member. The chain guide is coupled to the movable member to rotate around a rotational axis with respect to the movable member. The friction element is operatively arranged between the movable member and the chain guide to frictionally provide rotational resistance in a first rotational direction of the chain guide. The one-way clutch is operatively disposed between movable member and the chain guide to engage the friction element as the chain guide rotates in the first rotational direction. The electric actuator is operatively coupled to the one-way clutch to control the one-way clutch between a clutch-on mode and a clutch-off mode.

Rear derailleur

A bicycle suspension includes a stroke adjustment unit, a suspension damper, a damper adjustment unit, and an electronic controller. The stroke adjustment unit is configured to adjust a stroke of the bicycle suspension, which is configured to expand and contract within the stroke. The suspension damper is configured to apply damping force to the bicycle suspension. The damper adjustment unit is configured to adjust the damping force applied by the suspension damper. The electronic controller is configured to control the stroke adjustment unit and the damper adjustment unit.
