Abstract
A bicycle sprocket comprises sprocket teeth. The sprocket teeth include at least one first tooth and at least one second tooth. The at least one first tooth has a first radial-tooth height. The at least one first tooth has a first chain-engaging axial width which is smaller than a first distance defined between opposed outer link plates of a bicycle chain and which is larger than a second distance defined between opposed inner link plates of the bicycle chain. The first radial-tooth height is greater than the first chain-engaging axial width. The at least one second tooth has a second radial-tooth height. The at least one second tooth has a second chain-engaging axial width which is smaller than the second distance. The second radial-tooth height is greater than the second chain-engaging axial width. The first radial-tooth height is greater than the second radial-tooth height.
