First Claim
1. A user interface for a bicycle control system for a bicycle, said user interface comprisinga processor;
- a display coupled to said processor;
a selection device movable between a first position, a second position and a third position, said selection device generating a first signal in response to said selection device being moved to said first position, generating a second signal in response to said selection device being moved to said second position and generating a third signal in response to said selection device being moved to said third position;
wherein said processor is responsive to executable computer instructions for displaying a set of menu entries on said display in a first mode of operation and displaying a plurality of graphical elements in a second mode of operation, wherein said second mode of operation is displayed during operation of said bicycle; and
,wherein said processor is further responsive to moving between said menu entries in response to said first or second signal, said processor being further responsive to displaying a first suspension control setting in response to said third signal.

Abstract
A bicycle is disclosed having a control system with a user interface and an active suspension system. The control system includes a one or more sensors arranged to measure and transmit a signal indicative of the terrain over which the bicycle is being ridden. The active suspension system includes a valve box that is fluidly coupled to each chamber of the lower cylinder. An orifice in the valve box is changed in size in response to a signal from a sensor associated with the front wheel that changes the response of the suspension system due to changing terrain conditions. The user interface includes a selection device mounted to the handlebars that allows the user to change parameters of the active suspension system during operation of the bicycle.
