Abstract
A method for actuating a bicycle electronic gearshift comprising the steps of: receiving a signal indicative of the heart rate of a cyclist using the bicycle; receiving a signal indicative of the power delivered by the cyclist; calculating a performance index as a function of the value of the signal indicative of the power and of the value of the signal indicative of the heart rate; obtaining a reference value for the performance index; comparing the calculated performance index with the reference value of the performance index; and, emitting a control signal as a function of the outcome of comparing step. A bicycle electronic system for practicing the disclosed method comprises an electronic gearshift, a heart rate monitor, a power sensor, and a controller configured to carry out each step of the method.
