<p>A bicycle control device (12) is disclosed that has a lightweight, ergonomic control lever (24) for controlling both a braking device and a shifting device. The lever (24) has an attachment section, an intermediate section and an actuating section. Preferably, at least one of the intermediate and actuating sections has a hollow zone. The lever (24) preferably moves along first and second substantially perpendicular planes to control the braking device and the shifting device, respectively. Preferably, the actuating section has first and second actuation surfaces. The first surface extends in a direction substantially perpendicular to the first plane to move the lever (24) along the first plane. The second actuation surface is inclined relative to the planes and the first surface to move the lever (24) along the second plane. The second surface has a transverse dimension that is preferably at least one-half of the transverse dimension of the first surface. <IMAGE></p> |
