Abstract:
A bicycle sprocket is basically provided with a sprocket body and a plurality of chain-driving teeth. The sprocket body includes a central portion, an annular portion and an intermediate portion. The central portion has a central opening through which the rotational center axis passes and a plurality of internal splines for engaging external splines of a crank arm. The annular portion is disposed radially outward from the central portion with respect to the rotational center axis. The intermediate portion extends between the central portion and the annular portion in a radial direction about the rotational center axis. The plurality of chain-driving teeth extends radially outward from the annular portion of the sprocket body to engage with a bicycle chain. The sprocket body and the plurality of chain-driving teeth are formed as a one-piece, unitary member.
