2. Gear inches - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gear_inches

   This is equivalent to doubling the size of the drive wheel; that is, it is like a directly driven bicycle with a 52-inch wheel. That gear is said to be "52 gear inches." A bicycle with a 26-inch wheel, a 48-tooth chainring, and a cassette with gears ranging from 11 to 34 teeth has a lowest gear of 26 × 48 / 34 = 37 gear inches and a highest ...

3. Bicycle chain - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicycle_chain

   3 ⁄ 32 in (2.4 mm) chains are generally used on bikes with derailleurs such as racing, touring, and mountain bikes. [17] (Fixed sprockets and freewheels are also available in 3 ⁄ 32 in (2.4 mm) widths, so fixed-gear and single-speed bikes can be set up to use the narrower and lighter 3 ⁄ 32 in (2.4 mm) chains.)

4. Bicycle gearing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicycle_gearing

   In the case of road bikes, this is usually around 670 mm. A 700c "standard" wheel has a 622 mm rim diameter. The final wheel diameter depends on the specific tire but will be approximately 622 mm plus twice the tire width. Front/rear measurement only considers the sizes of a chainring and a rear sprocket. Gear inches and metres of development ...

5. List of bicycle parts - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_bicycle_parts

   Cluster: a bicycle cogset, either a freewheel, or cassette; Cogset: the set of rear sprockets that attaches to the hub on the rear wheel; Cone: holds bearings in place, pressed against the cup; Cotter: pin for attaching cottered cranks; Coupler: to connect tubing together; Crankset or chainset: composed of cranks and at least one chainring

6. Sprocket - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sprocket

   A multi-speed bicycle, by providing two or three different-sized driving sprockets and up to 12 (as of 2018) different-sized driven sprockets, allows up to 36 different gear ratios. The resulting lower gear ratios make the bike easier to pedal up hills while the higher gear ratios make the bike more powerful to pedal on flats and downhills.

7. Bicycle drivetrain systems - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicycle_drivetrain_systems

   Major changes in bicycle form have often been initiated or accompanied by advances in drivetrain systems. Several early drivetrains used straight-cut gears that meshed directly with each other outside of the hub. [1] [2] Some bicycles have used a double-sided rear wheel, with different-sized sprockets on each side. To change gears, the rider ...
