  • Patent number: 9581230
    Abstract: A sprocket includes first teeth having a first maximum width, and second teeth having a second maximum width greater than the first maximum width alternately arranged with the first teeth. The second teeth have a leading surface relative to a drive direction of the sprocket, a lateral surface at the second maximum width, and a relief between the leading surface and the lateral surface, with a midline of the lateral surface being offset relative to a plane extended radially through a center of a respective tooth.
