establishing a connection of the control device to a first server using the first user account data;

establishing a connection of the control device to a second server using the second user account data, the second server different from the first server;

providing the first bicycle ID to the first server;

providing the second bicycle ID to the second server;

providing first pairing data from the first server based on the first bicycle ID;

providing second pairing data from the second server based on the second bicycle ID;

adjusting an appearance of a first label as shown on the display unit based on the first pairing data; and
