Abstract
The invention provides a generator for a bicycle. The generator has one or more driving magnets fixed to a wheel of the bicycle and an induction structure that is fixed to a frame part of the bicycle. The induction structure comprises an induction magnet and a coil. A fixture allows fixing of the driving magnets at locations where they, during operation of the bicycle, repeatedly moves towards and away from the induction magnet. The generator comprises means for reorienting the induction magnet so that it is optimally oriented when a driving magnet approaches. Such means comprises a first driving magnet or a structure of magnetisable material which is magnetisable by the driving magnet.
