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.

Cassette: a group of stacked sprockets on the rear wheel of a bicycle with a rear derailleur; Coaster brake or backpedal brake; Chain: a system of interlinking pins, plates and rollers that transmits power from the front sprocket(s) to the rear sprocket(s)
Because sprockets must have a (relatively small) whole number of teeth it is impossible to achieve a perfect progression; for example the seven derailleur sprockets 14-16-18-21-24-28-32 have an average step size of around 15% but with actual steps varying between 12.5% and 16.7%.
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 ...
