  • Patent number: 6023646
    Abstract: A display device provided to be associated, on the one hand, with an electric gearshift, and, on the other hand, with at least one sensor of at least one performance parameter of the bicycle or the cyclist. The gearshift is provided to emit a confirmation signal that a requested displacement did occur. This signal is sent to a processing circuit which elaborates information relative to the sprocket called, then sends this information to a display manager. During a period predetermined by a time delay, the display manager blackouts one of the current displays from the display unit and sends the information relative to the sprocket called to the display.
