ABSTRACT:
A speed indicator includes a stationary member fixed to a handlebar of a bicycle, a takeup element supported by the stationary member to be rotatable about a first axis for taking up a control cable, a shift lever for rotating the takeup element, and a pointer pivotable about a second axis fixed to the stationary member. The pointer overlaps the takeup element as viewed in a direction along the first axis. The speed indicator further includes an indicating section for cooperating with the pointer for indicating a speed stage selected by operation of the shift lever. The takeup element has a projection engaged with a slot formed in the pointer for causing the pointer to pivot in response to rotation of the takeup element.
