A bicycle rear sprocket assembly comprises a first sprocket and a second sprocket. The first sprocket includes a first torque-transmitting profile disposed around a first sprocket opening. The second sprocket includes a second torque-transmitting profile disposed around a second sprocket opening. The first torque-transmitting profile is configured to engage with the second torque-transmitting profile in the mounted state. The first sprocket includes an axial abutment surface configured to axially abut against the second sprocket for axially positioning the first sprocket and the second sprocket relative to each other in the mounted state. The axial abutment surface is disposed farther from an axial center plane of the bicycle rear hub assembly than the first torque-transmitting profile in the mounted state.

A bicycle includes a transmission having two switchable drives between a driver body on which rear sprockets are positioned and a wheel hub of a rear wheel. The bicycle has actuation elements for switching between drives and operating elements for operating the actuation elements. The bicycle includes only a single front sprocket. The actuation elements are embodied in an electrical version and the operating elements are electrically coupled to the actuation elements. By advantageously selecting the drives of the driver between the cassette housing and wheel hub, a front derailleur may be omitted. The driver allows operation with only little energy, since the chain need not be shifted. consequently, the actuation elements require little energy for changing the drive between the crank axle and the wheel hub of the bicycle, so that it is pre-eminently suitable for these actuation elements and their operation to be executed as an electrical version.

A bicycle part includes a housing and a lid. The housing includes an inner peripheral portion, an outer peripheral portion, an end wall portion and a connecting portion. The outer peripheral portion is spaced radially outward from the inner peripheral portion with respect to a center axis of the enclosed area. The end wall portion interconnects the inner peripheral portion and the outer peripheral portion to at least partly define an internal space. The connecting portion interconnects the inner peripheral portion and the outer peripheral portion. The lid overlies the internal space. The lid is welded to the inner peripheral portion along an inner weld path and the outer peripheral portion along an outer weld path. The lid is further welded to at least part of the connecting portion of the housing a connecting weld path connecting the inner weld path and the outer weld path.

A multi-sprocket arrangement for a bicycle includes a larger sprocket having a passage recess on an outer link plate passage tooth on an outboard side of the larger sprocket facing a smaller sprocket. The recess is on a side of the larger sprocket facing the smaller sprocket. The passage recess extends from a radially outer tooth tip of the outer link plate passage tooth to a non-load tooth flank of the outer link plate passage tooth or a tooth base directly adjacent to the outer link plate passage tooth such that during a gear shifting of a chain from a larger sprocket to a directly adjacent smaller sprocket, the chain passes the outer link plate passage tooth on the outboard side of the sprocket.

A hub assembly is provided for a human-powered vehicle. The hub assembly includes a hub axle, a hub body, a pawl support body, at least one pawl, a sprocket support body, at least one sprocket support bearing, a ratchet body and a plurality of ratchet teeth. The hub body is rotatably mounted on the hub axle. The pawl support body is connected to the hub body. The pawl is movable between a driving position and a non-driving position. The at sprocket support bearing rotatably supports the sprocket support body on the hub axle. The ratchet body is connected to the sprocket support body. The ratchet teeth engage the pawl to transmit a driving force from the sprocket support body to the hub body while rotating in a driving rotational direction. The sprocket support bearing is disposed opposite to the hub body with respect to the ratchet teeth.
