Method and apparatus for controlling a bicycle transmission

Abstract

An apparatus for controlling the operation of a bicycle transmission includes a shift command receiving unit that receives shift command signals corresponding to shift commands, and a shift command combining unit that combines a plurality of the shift command signals into a resultant shift command signal that would shift the bicycle transmission to the same state as if the plurality of shift commands all were executed individually. A method for controlling the operation of a bicycle transmission includes the steps of receiving shift command signals corresponding to shift commands, and combining a plurality of the shift command signals into a resultant shift command signal that would shift the bicycle transmission to the same state as if the plurality of shift commands all were executed individually.
