  2. Gear inches - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gear_inches

    Simplified diagram of gear inches: As the rear sprocket is halfed in size, the distance traveled by the rear wheel doubles, at half the torque. Gear inches is an imperial measure corresponding to the diameter in inches of the drive wheel of a penny-farthing bicycle with equivalent ( direct-drive ) gearing.

  3. Bicycle gearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicycle_gearing

    the number of possible gear ratios is 24 (=3×8, this is the number usually quoted in advertisements); the number of usable gear ratios is 22; the number of distinct gear ratios is typically 16 to 18. The combination of 3 chainrings and an 8-sprocket cogset does not result in 24 usable gear ratios.

  4. Sprocket - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sprocket

    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 ...

    Chain: a system of interlinking pins, plates and rollers that transmits power from the front sprocket(s) to the rear sprocket(s) Chainguard: Gear case cover for the entire chain either totally encasing (sometimes containing oil) or 'incomplete'. Either way, designed to keep clothing from fouling the chain. See also Skirtguard, Bashguard.

  6. Roller chain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roller_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.

  7. Chain drive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chain_drive

    Most often, the power is conveyed by a roller chain, known as the drive chain or transmission chain, [1] passing over a sprocket, with the teeth of the gear meshing with the holes in the links of the chain. The gear is turned, and this pulls the chain putting mechanical force into the system.

  8. Hub gear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hub_gear

    A freewheeling hub with a sprocket suitable for narrow chain can be combined with a double or triple crankset and front derailleur, in order to provide a wider range and closer gear ratio spacing. A chain tensioner or a rear derailleur is needed to take up chain slack, and care is needed not to over-torque the hub by using too small a chainring ...

  9. Bicycle drivetrain systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicycle_drivetrain_systems

    A chain drive and rear derailleur gear change, the most popular system in use today A shaft-drive with crankset and rear gear hub Bicycle drivetrain systems are used to transmit power on bicycles , tricycles , quadracycles , unicycles , or other human-powered vehicles from the riders to the drive wheels.
