Patent attributes
A bicycle rear-wheel sprocket pairing for engaging in a meshing, force-transmitting and form-fitting manner with a bicycle roller chain, wherein the rear-wheel sprocket pairing is rotatable about a sprocket axis. The sprocket axis defines an axial direction running along the sprocket axis, a radial direction running so as to be orthogonal to the sprocket axis, and a circumferential direction encircling the sprocket axis. The rear-wheel sprocket pairing comprises a larger sprocket and a smaller sprocket which for rotating conjointly with the larger sprocket in a slip-free manner about the sprocket axis is connected to the larger sprocket so as to be coaxial with and axially directly adjacent to the latter. The larger sprocket has an even tooth count of equal to or less than twenty-two teeth, and the difference in the tooth count between the larger and the smaller sprocket is exactly two teeth.
