A bicycle crankarm comprising a main body extending between a rotation axis (X) and a pedal axis of the crankarm, and having a recharging port for a battery power supply unit, wherein said recharging port is on a face of the main body of the crankarm.
A bicycle crankset comprising a first crankarm and a second crankarm, each of said crankarms comprising a main body extending between a rotation axis (X) and a pedal axis, said first crankarm comprising a first recharging port for a battery power supply unit, wherein said first recharging port is on a face of the main body of said first crankarm.
A bicycle crankarm comprising a main body extending between a rotation axis (X) and a pedal axis of the crankarm, and having a recharging port for a battery power supply unit, wherein said recharging port is on a face of the main body of the crankarm and includes at least one magnet that mates with a corresponding magnetic element of a charging device or with at least one metallic element of a charging device, or includes at least one metallic element that mates with at least one magnet of a recharging device.
A bicycle crankset comprising a first crankarm and a second crankarm, each of said first and second crankarms comprising a main body extending between a rotation axis (X) and a pedal axis, at least one of said first or second crankarms includes a battery power supply unit recharging port and one of a magnetic or metallic element on a face of the main body that is positioned to mate magnetically with one of a magnetic or metallic element on a charging device.
A bicycle crankset comprising first and second crankarms, each crankarm having a main body extending between a rotation axis (X) and a pedal axis;
- at least one of said first or second crankarms includes a battery power charging port on a face of the main body and one of a magnetic or metallic element that is positioned to mate magnetically with one of a magnetic or metallic element on a charging device and connect said charging device to said battery power charging port.
