Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The invention relates to a drive pawl within a bicycle transmission, wherein at least one torque transmission path extends from an input side to an output side across the same, and that has allocated thereto, relative to a first component supporting said pawl, a rotatable ring part, which interacts with the pawl for the alternate activation and deactivation of the pawl.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A bicycle transmission, comprising: an input side by which an input torque from a pedaling operation is introduced into the bicycle transmission, wherein the input torque is one of an input drive torque acting in a drive direction and an input brake torque acting in a brake direction; an output side through which an output drive torque based on the input drive torque is transmitted to a driven wheel of a bicycle; a brake mechanism allocated to the…
