DRIVE
July 2, 2014
A bicycle control device includes a housing member (20), a control lever member (22), a shift-operating mechanism (23) and a hydraulic fluid pressure generator (21). The housing member (20) has an attachment part for attachment to a handlebar, and a grip part extending longitudinally between first and second ends of the grip part. The attachment part is provided on the first end of the grip part. The control lever member (22) is pivotally provided with respect to the housing member (20). The shift-operating mechanism (23) is supported by the housing member (20). The shift-operating mechanism (23) includes a control cable attachment part that is configured to be coupled to a shifting device by a control cable. The hydraulic fluid pressure generator (21) has a cylinder (30) provided in the grip part of the housing member (20), and a piston (31) movably disposed within the cylinder (20) by movement of the control lever member (22) to generate fluid pressure for controlling a braking device. The cylinder (30) is disposed closer to the second end of the grip part than the shift-operating mechanism (23).
