Bicycle control device
DRIVE
July 2, 2014
A bicycle control device (12) 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 (13), and a grip part extending longitudinally between first and second ends of the grip part. The control lever member (22) pivots respect to the housing member (20). The shift-operating mechanism (23) is coupled to a shifting device by a control cable. The hydraulic fluid pressure generator (21) has a cylinder (30), a reservoir (33), and a piston (31) movably disposed within the cylinder (30) to generate fluid pressure for controlling a braking device (18). The cylinder (30) is disposed in the housing member (20) at a position closer toward the second end of the grip part than is the shift-operating mechanism (23) to the second end of the grip part. The reservoir (33) is disposed next to the cylinder (30) in a direction intersecting the longitudinal direction.
