1. A component for a human-powered vehicle, the component comprising:
a component body;
a single substrate provided on the component body, the single substrate including a first setting surface and a second setting surface that are spaced apart in a thickness direction, the single substrate further including a connection hole that connects the first setting surface and the second setting surface;
a resistor formed on the single substrate and forming a strain gauge with part of the single substrate, the resistor being provided on the first setting surface;
an electric wire formed on the single substrate and electrically connected to the resistor, at least part of the electric wire being provided on the second setting surface and part of the electric wire being provided in the connection hole;
a signal processing unit formed or directly mounted on the single substrate and electrically connected to the electric wire;
a signal output that outputs a signal from the signal processing unit; and
an electric power input electrically connected to the signal processing unit and supplied with electric power from a power supply provided on at least one of the human-powered vehicle and the component body.
