A bicycle rear derailleur includes a base member, a chain guide, a movable member and a first link member. The base member is configured to be mounted to a bicycle frame at a frame mounting axis. The chain guide includes a first pulley rotatably arranged around a first pulley axis in a first pulley plane. The movable member pivotally supports the chain guide about a pivot axis. The first link member moves the chain guide between first and second lateral positions. The first lateral position is closer to a bicycle center plane. The first pulley plane intersects the first link member in a state where the chain guide is located at the second lateral position. The frame mounting axis is spaced from the pivot axis by a distance equal to or larger than eighty-nine millimeters when the chain guide is at the first lateral position.

The disclosure relates to a derailleur assembly including a base member, a movable member, a driving module and a power module he driving module includes a casing and a motor, wherein the casing is pivotably disposed on the base member via a first pivot shaft, the casing is pivotably disposed on the movable member via a second pivot shaft, and the motor is disposed in the casing. The power module includes a base body and a battery assembly, wherein the base body is pivotably disposed on the base member via a third pivot shaft, the base body is pivotably disposed on the movable member via a fourth pivot shaft, and the battery assembly is disposed on the base body and is electrically connected to the motor.

A bracket element configured for installation on an axial inner side of an associated bracket portion of a bicycle frame for the purposes of installing a rear gearshift mechanism of a derailleur system on the bicycle frame is provided. The bracket element may include a first portion, which has an opening or aperture assigned to the axle and which, in the installed state, is subjected to a clamping force which acts between the rear bracket portion. The bracket element may also include a second portion having an installation opening which is radially offset in relation to the opening or aperture in the installed state with respect to the axis and to which an attachment end of a base element of the rear gearshift mechanism is fixable.

A bicycle drivetrain having a rear derailleur, a chain tensioner, and a chain guiding element which can be an idler pulley. The chain tensioner is separate from the rear derailleur and can be placed near the pedal crank. The bicycle to which the drivetrain is mounted has a drive chain, and the position of the lower portion of the drive chain (i.e. the portion of the drive chain that is not tensioned from pedaling forces) is elevated relative to that of bicycles with drivetrains having conventional rear derailleurs.

A linkage having a link arm including a first link and a second link. The first link includes a first hole and a second hole. The second link includes a third hole and a fourth hole. The first link and the second link are pivotally coupled to a first member about a first pivot axis, and are pivotally coupled to a second member about a second pivot axis spaced apart from the first pivot axis. The first hole and the third hole are provided coaxially with the first pivot axis. The second hole and the fourth hole are provided coaxially with the second pivot axis. The third hole is provided between the first hole and the first member in an axial direction with respect to the first pivot axis in a state where the first link is pivotally coupled to the first member about the first pivot axis.
