1. An electronic control device for a bicycle, comprising:
a housing;
a planar printed circuit board (“PCB”) disposed within the housing, the planar PCB having a substrate, the substrate having a thickness between a top surface and a bottom surface, and a perimeter surface extending along an outwardly facing edge of the thickness of the substrate,
a power source disposed within the housing;
an antenna located between the substrate and the housing on the perimeter surface of the substrate; and
a switch, the switch located on the planar PCB and configured to control a component of the bicycle,
wherein a plane extending throughout the thickness of the substrate intersects both the power source and the antenna.
