Abstract: A bicycle component controller is basically provided with a data storage device and a processor. The data storage device contains sprocket assembly information of at least one sprocket assembly. The processor is configured to perform a gear shift control based on the sprocket assembly information. The sprocket assembly information of the at least one sprocket assembly at least includes a total sprocket number and shifting gate information. The single shifting distance of the sprocket assembly information corresponds to an axial spacing between adjacent sprockets of the at least one sprocket assembly.

Abstract: An accelerator position sensor according to the present invention is held inside a throttle grip of a vehicle rotationally operated by a driver. The accelerator position sensor includes: a magnet extended along a rotation axis of the throttle grip and configured to rotate in conjunction with the throttle grip; a magnetic detection unit arranged so as to face a predetermined face of the magnet; and a magnetic body arranged so as to face another face that is different from the predetermined face of the magnet. On the predetermined face and the other face of the magnet, respectively, mutually different numbers of magnetic poles are magnetized along a rotation direction of the magnet.

Abstract: An electronic bicycle includes a torque control system that controls what torque is applied to wheels of the electronic bicycle by electronic hub motors. The torque control system may determine a torque to apply to the wheels based on user input signals. The torque control system also may detect when the wheels of the electronic bicycle are slipping, and adjust the torque to minimize the time that the wheel is slipping. Additionally, the torque control system may determine a coefficient of friction between the wheels and the ground and determine a maximum torque to apply to the wheels based on the coefficient of friction. Furthermore, when braking, the torque control system may determine whether torque is applied to the wheels by passive braking or by active braking.
