That combination of gears and wheel is said to be "26 gear inches." If the front chainring has 48 teeth and the rear sprocket has 24 teeth, then each turn of the pedals produces two turns of the rear wheel. 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.
16 tooth sprocket. Do = Sprocket diameter. Dp = Pitch diameter A sprocket and roller chain. A sprocket, [1] sprocket-wheel [2] or chainwheel is a profiled wheel with teeth that mesh with a chain, rack or other perforated or indented material. [3] [4] The name 'sprocket' applies generally to any wheel upon which radial projections engage a chain ...
Roller chain and sprocket The sketch of roller chain, Leonardo da Vinci, Codex Atlanticus. Roller chain or bush roller chain is the type of chain drive most commonly used for transmission of mechanical power on many kinds of domestic, industrial and agricultural machinery, including conveyors, wire- and tube-drawing machines, printing presses, cars, motorcycles, and bicycles.
As the sprocket rotates, the chain is raised up to the pitch circle and is then dropped down again as sprocket rotation continues. Because of the fixed pitch length, the pitch line of the link cuts across the chord between two pitch points on the sprocket, remaining in this position relative to the sprocket until the link exits the sprocket.
For a toothed belt drive, the number of teeth on the sprocket can be used. For friction belt drives the pitch radius of the input and output pulleys must be used. The mechanical advantage of a pair of a chain drive or toothed belt drive with an input sprocket with N A teeth and the output sprocket has N B teeth is given by
Two intermeshing spur gears rotating at different velocity due to differing gear ratio. A gear [1] [2] or gearwheel [3] [4] [5] is a rotating machine part typically used to transmit rotational motion and/or torque by means of a series of teeth that engage with compatible teeth of another gear or other part.

Because there is a traveling pulley at the load, this doubles the mechanical advantage of the fixed (anchored) sprocket assembly, leading to a total mechanical advantage of 2 × P 1 / P 1 − P 2 . For instance, a 1-ton differential chain fall might have a 15-pocket and a 14-pocket sprocket set.
