1. A bicycle component control apparatus comprising:
- a controller configured to output a first actuation signal to operate a first electrical bicycle component in response to receiving a first signal from a first input member, to output a second actuation signal to operate a second electrical bicycle component in response to receiving a second signal from a second input member, to store predetermined priority information indicating priority ranks for operating the first and second electrical bicycle components, and to receive a change of the predetermined priority information by a user,the controller being configured to control the first and second electrical bicycle components based on the predetermined priority information such thatwhen the predetermined priority information is such that operation of the first electrical bicycle component has a higher priority rank than operation of the second electrical bicycle component, the controller prohibits outputting the second actuation signal to the second electrical bicycle component in response to receiving the second signal from the second input member if the first electrical bicycle component is being operated by the first actuation signal in response to receiving the first signal, andwhen the predetermined priority information is such that operation of the second electrical bicycle component has a higher priority rank than operation of the first electrical bicycle component, the controller prohibits outputting the first actuation signal to the first electrical bicycle component in response to receiving the first signal from the first input member if the second electrical bicycle component is being operated by the second actuation signal in response to receiving the second signal.

Abstract
A bicycle component control apparatus is basically provided with a controller that is configured to operate a first electrical bicycle component in response to receiving a first signal from a first input member, and to operate a second electrical bicycle component in response to receiving a second signal from a second input member. The controller is configured to prohibit operation of the second electrical bicycle component upon starting operation of the first electrical bicycle component.
