Abstract

A bicycle generator that includes a stator, a rotating member defining a rotating axis, a magnet arranged so as to face the stator, a first transmission structure that transmits rotational motion of the rotating member to the magnet at a first rotational speed ratio when the rotating member rotates in a first direction, and a second transmission structure that transmits rotational motion of the rotating member to the magnet at a second rotational speed ratio when the rotating member rotates in a second direction. The second rotational speed ratio is greater than the first rotational speed ratio.
