Abstract

A bicycle shift operating device is provided with a mounting part, a first operating member and a first signal generator. The first operating member is movable from a first operation start position such that the first operating member returns to the first operation start position upon completion of a shifting operation. The first signal generator generates a signal for changing a shift position of the bicycle shift operating device by one shift position in a first direction from a current shift position in response to the first operating member being moved from the first operation start position to a first position. The first signal generator generates a signal for changing the shift position by two shift positions from the current shift position in response to the first operating member being moved from the first operation start position to a second position located beyond the first position.
