Abstract
A method for controlling a shift system of a bicycle includes, in particular during pedaling, (i) acquiring sensor data representing a posture of a rider of the bicycle relative to the bicycle, (ii) recognizing a transition of the rider from a seated position to a standing position based on the sensor data acquired, and (iii) decreasing a gear ratio of the shift system in a controlled manner in response to recognizing the transition of the rider from the seated position to the standing position.
