A bicycle rear derailleur comprises a base member, a linkage structure, a movable member, a first pulley assembly, and a second pulley assembly. The first pulley assembly includes a first pulley support and a first toothed pulley. The first pulley support is pivotally coupled to the movable member about a first pivot axis. The first toothed pulley is rotatably coupled to the first pulley support about a first pulley axis spaced apart from the first pivot axis. The second pulley assembly includes a second pulley support, a second toothed pulley, and a third toothed pulley. The second pulley support is pivotally coupled to the movable member about a second pivot axis. The second toothed pulley is rotatably coupled to the second pulley support about a second pulley axis. The third toothed pulley is rotatably coupled to the second pulley support about a third pulley axis.

An actuator device for a bicycle gearshift includes an actuation linkage, a drive member configured to control the deformation of the actuation linkage and comprising a motion transmission element having a rotation axis (X), and a fastening/release mechanism operatively arranged between the motion transmission element and a connection rod of the actuation linkage. The fastening/release mechanism has a first member rotatable about the rotation axis (X) as a unit with said motion transmission element, a second member rotatable about the rotation axis (X) together with said connection rod, an elastic element operatively arranged between the first member and the second member and that exerts a predetermined pre-load stress on the first member and on the second member.

An individual chain wheel for a bicycle front crank arrangement for engaging in a drive chain includes a plurality of teeth formed on a circumference of the chain wheel and having a first and a second group of teeth. The teeth of the second group of teeth are arranged in an alternating manner between the teeth of the first group of teeth. Each tooth has a load flank via which force is transmitted between an adjacent roller of the drive chain and the respective tooth. Each tooth of the first group may also have at least one profile with an opening in the vicinity of the flank, in which a portion of an inner link plate of the drive chain, which portion protrudes beyond the roller, engages.

A bicycle derailleur comprises a base member, a movable member, a motor unit, and a controller. The controller is configured to control the motor unit to rotate an output shaft of the motor unit at a first maximum voltage during a first shifting operation of the chain in a first shifting direction. The controller is configured to control the motor unit to rotate the output shaft of the motor unit at a second maximum voltage during a second shifting operation of the chain in a second shifting direction. The first maximum voltage is different from the second maximum voltage.

A rear derailleur is provided, including: a base, configured to be mounted to a bicycle; a linkage assembly, connected to the base; a movable member, rotatably connected to the linkage assembly; a chain guide, rotatably connected to the movable member by an axle assembly; a biasing member, located between the movable member and the chain guide, positioned to the movable member and the chain guide; a resistance mechanism, connected to the movable member; and a cap member, covering the resistance mechanism and driving the resistance mechanism, rotatably positionable in either of a first position and a second position, wherein when the cap member is positioned in the first position, the resistance mechanism provides a first resistance, and when the cap member is positioned in the second position, the resistance mechanism provides a second resistance which is different from the first resistance.
