Abstract
A bicycle operating device includes a base member, first and second cable control bodies, first and second positioning mechanisms, an operating member and an input mechanism. The first positioning mechanism selectively maintains the first cable control body in a first predetermined position. The second positioning mechanism selectively maintains the second cable control body in a second predetermined position. The input mechanism moves the first and second cable control bodies between the first and second predetermined positions in accordance with a predetermined operation sequence having a changing point to change operation from the first cable control body to the second cable control body. The input mechanism moves the first cable control body by at least two of the first predetermined positions in a single continuous operation of the operating member. The input mechanism includes a restricting structure that prohibits movement of the first cable control body at the changing point.
