Abstract

The invention relates to a toothed wheel (10) for a rocker arm of a bicycle gearshift, comprising a rotation axis (X) and a toothing (20) comprising a plurality of first teeth (22) and a plurality of second teeth (24) circumferentially alternated with the first teeth (22) and arranged so that each first tooth (22) is spaced apart from an adjacent second tooth (24) by a toothing pitch corresponding to the pitch of a chain (70) intended to be engaged with the toothed wheel (10). The first teeth (22) are axially wider than the second teeth (24) and are configured to engage with respective outer links (72) of the chain (70). The second teeth (24) are configured to engage with respective inner links (74) of the chain (70). The first teeth (22) have a top surface (23) that, in a radial direction, has a distance (D) from the rotation axis (X) greater than the radius (r_R) of a reference circumference (R) of the toothed wheel (10), i.e. the circumference on which, in a operating condition of correct engagement with the chain (70), the contact points between first teeth (22) and outer links (72) of the chain (70) and the contact points between second teeth (24) and inner links (74) of the chain (70) lie. The aforementioned distance (D) is such that, starting from an condition of incorrect engagement in which a predetermined first tooth (22) is engaged by an inner link (72) of the chain (70), the toothed wheel (10) reaches the operating condition engagement with the chain (70) after a rotation in the counter-clockwise direction of said predetermined first tooth (22) with respect to said rotation axis (X) by an angle (A) less than 360°.
