Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, these electric (dynamic) shift control devices do not provide any type of adjustment or the like to change the relative mounting position of the switch operating member of the switch with respect to the base member of the shift control device
Therefore, the position of the switch operating member of the switch may not be optimal for all riders

Abstract

A bicycle shift control device is provided with a base member, an electrical switch and a plurality of switch operating members. The base member is configured to be attached to a bicycle, e.g., preferably to a drop type bicycle handlebar. The switch operating members are configured to be selectively mounted one at a time on the bicycle shift control device. In the illustrated embodiment, the electrical switch is mounted to a control (brake) lever. Each of the switch operating members preferably includes a rider operating portion that is arranged to be located at a different relative location as determined relative to a longitudinal axis of the control lever when each of the switch operating members is selectively mounted to the pivoting portion of the electrical switch.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to a bicycle shift control device. More specifically, the present invention relates to a bicycle shift control device that includes a switch operating member having a rider-operated portion that is adjustable relative to a base member of the shift control device. Background technique [0002] Cycling is becoming an increasingly popular form of recreation as well as a mode of transportation. Moreover, cycling has become a very popular competitive sport among both amateurs and professionals. Whether the bicycle is used for recreation, transportation or competition, the bicycle industry is constantly improving the various components of the bicycle. Specifically, controls for braking and / or shifting are components that have undergone extensive redesign in recent years. [0003] In the past, bicycle shifters were mechanically operated devices, sometimes located near the brake levers of the bicycle. Therefore, usua...
