Abstract:
1. A bicycle operating device comprising: a housing; a control member rotatably disposed on the housing about an axis for controlling a control cable; a linearly moving member movably disposed on the housing for linear displacement between a first position and a second position; a transmission operatively coupled between the linearly moving member and the control member, the transmission converting the linear displacement of the linearly moving member from the first position to the second position into a rotation of the control member toward a first rotational direction about the axis; a user operating member movably mounted to the housing between a rest position and an actuated position, and an intermediate element disposed between the linearly moving member and the user operating member, the intermediate element includin a pivoting member that is disposed on the user operating member, and the intermediate element being movably mounted relative to the linearly moving member and the user operating member to transmit a movement of the user operating member to the linearly moving member for moving the linearly moving member from the first position to the second position upon movement of the user operating member from the rest position to the actuated position.
