Abstract
A bicycle transmission control apparatus includes an inclination sensor and a controller. The controller outputs a shift signal to shift a bicycle transmission to a prescribed shift position based on an inclination detected by the inclination sensor while a bicycle equipped with the bicycle transmission is determined to be in a state corresponding to at least one of stopping to a rest state and beginning to move from the rest state.
