Bicycle electrical front derailleur

1. A bicycle electrical front derailleur comprising:

a wireless communication unit configured to wirelessly receive a control signal;

a movable member;

a linkage including a first link member and a second link member, the second link member being disposed closer to a bicycle frame than the first link member when the front derailleur is mounted to the bicycle frame; and

an electrical actuation unit configured to move the movable member according to the control signal, the electrical actuation unit including an electrical actuator having an output shaft extending downwardly in a state where the bicycle electrical front derailleur is mounted to a bicycle, the electrical actuation unit including a printed circuit board, and the electrical actuator being electrically connected to the printed circuit board, the printed circuit board controlling the electrical actuator, the electrical actuation unit further including a gear reduction unit that is operatively connected to the output shaft of the electrical actuator to transmit rotational movement of the output shaft to the movable member via the linkage, the gear reduction unit having a rotational axis that is parallel to a rotational axis of the output shaft.

2. The bicycle electrical front derailleur according to claim 1 , wherein

the electrical actuator has a housing from which the output shaft extends, and

the gear reduction unit is configured to be arranged downwardly with respect to the housing in the state where the bicycle electrical front derailleur is mounted to the bicycle.

3. The bicycle electrical front derailleur according to claim 1 , wherein

at least part of the printed circuit board is arranged adjacent to the electrical actuator.

4. The bicycle electrical front derailleur according to claim 1 , wherein

the electrical actuation unit includes an electrical port electrically connected to the printed circuit board, and

the electrical port is configured to be detachably connected to an electrical cable to supply electrical power to the electrical actuation unit.

5. The bicycle electrical front derailleur according to claim 4 , wherein

at least part of the electrical port is arranged rearwardly with respect to the electrical actuator.

6. The bicycle electrical front derailleur according to claim 4 , wherein

at least part of the electrical port is arranged downwardly with respect to the electrical actuator.

7. The bicycle electrical front derailleur according to claim 4 , wherein

the electrical actuation unit is configured to receive a control signal from the electrical cable or the wireless communication unit.

8. The bicycle electrical front derailleur according to claim 1 , wherein

the wireless communication unit includes a wireless communicator that is configured to wirelessly receive shift signals and to transmit at least one of position data and operational data.

9. The bicycle electrical front derailleur according to claim 1 , further comprising

a structure configured to detachably attach the wireless communication unit.

10. The bicycle electrical front derailleur according to claim 1 , further comprising

a base member configured to support the electrical actuation unit with respect to the bicycle.

11. The bicycle electrical rear derailleur according to claim 10 , wherein

the movable member includes a chain guide and the base member that supports the chain guide with respect to the bicycle.

12. The bicycle electrical front derailleur according to claim 2 , wherein

the printed circuit board is connected to a position detection circuit for determining an amount of rotational movement that is outputted by the gear reduction unit.
