A bicycle control apparatus comprises a first position setting member having a plurality of first positioning members with a first pitch, an operating member that rotates relative to the position setting member, and a second position setting member structured to rotate with the operating member and to move axially. The second position setting member has a plurality of second positioning members with a second pitch, wherein the first pitch is different from the second pitch. The first pitch and the second pitch are set so that an engagement pitch between a first engagement position of the second position setting member and a second engagement position of the second position setting member that results from rotation of the operating member is less than both the first pitch and the second pitch.
