Abstract

A method for monitoring the travel speed of a bicycle, in particular a pedelec. The method includes: providing a power supply for a speed signal transmitter, ascertaining a first speed for the bicycle, interrupting the power supply for the speed signal transmitter for a specifiable interruption time span, while the power supply is switched off, ascertaining a second speed, ascertaining a comparison result by comparing the ascertained first and second speed, and recognizing a faulty speed signal transmitter as a function of the result of the comparison.
