The at least one sprocket includes at least ten internal spline teeth configured to engage with a bicycle hub assembly. The at least ten internal spline teeth have an internal spline pitch diameter. The inner cavity has a maximum outer diameter greater than the internal spline pitch diameter. In the case of the rear sprocket assembly of a bicycle according to the first aspect, compared with a sprocket including nine or fewer internal spline teeth, the at least ten internal spline teeth reduce the rotational force applied to each of the at least ten internal spline teeth. This improves the durability of the at least one sprocket and / or improves the freedom to select the material of the at least one sprocket without reducing the durability of the at least one sprocket. In addition, the inner cavity saves the weight of the rear sprocket assembly of the bicycle. According to a second aspect of the present invention, the rear sprocket assembly of a bicycle according to the first aspect is configured such that a total number of the at least ten internal spline teeth is equal to or greater than 20. In the case of the rear sprocket assembly of a bicycle according to the second aspect, compared with a sprocket including nine or fewer internal spline teeth, the at least twenty internal spline teeth further reduce the rotational force applied to each of the at least twenty internal spline teeth. This further improves the durability of the at least one sprocket and / or improves the freedom to select the material of the at least one sprocket without reducing the durability of the at least one sprocket. According to a third aspect of the present invention, the rear sprocket assembly of a bicycle according to the second aspect is configured such that the total number of the at least ten internal spline teeth is equal to or greater than 25. In the case of the rear sprocket assembly of a bicycle according to the third aspect, compared with a sprocket including nine or fewer internal spline teeth, the at least twenty-five internal spline teeth further reduce the rotational force applied to each of the at least twenty internal spline teeth.

The axial sprocket abutting surface 28D is positioned closer to the axial center plane CPL of the bicycle hub assembly 12 than the first axial end 28B in the axial direction D2. The second axial end 28C is positioned closer to the axial center plane CPL of the bicycle hub assembly 12 than the axial sprocket abutting surface 28D in the axial direction D2. In this embodiment, the axial sprocket abutting surface 28D is provided on the larger diameter portion 42, however, the axial sprocket abutting surface 28D can be provided on other portions of the bicycle hub assembly 12 as needed.

The axial sprocket abutting surface 28D faces the first axial end 28B in the axial direction D2. As can be seen in FIG. 6, the sprocket configuration axial length AL3 is defined in the axial direction D2 between the first axial frame abutting surface 30B1 and the axial sprocket abutting surface 28D of the sprocket support body 28. In this embodiment, the sprocket configuration axial length AL3 is in the range of 35 millimeters to 45 millimeters. For example, the sprocket configuration axial length AL3 is 39.64 millimeters. For example, by omitting the larger diameter portion 42, the sprocket configuration axial length AL3 can also extend up to 44.25 millimeters. However, the sprocket configuration axial length AL3 is not limited to this embodiment and the above range. The larger diameter portion 42 has an axial end 42A that is the farthest from the first axial frame abutting surface 30B1 in the axial direction D2. An additional axial length AL4 is defined in the axial direction D2 from the first axial frame abutting surface 30B1 to the axial end 42A. The additional axial length AL4 is in the range of 38 mm to 47 mm. The additional axial length AL4 can be in the range of 44 mm to 45 mm. The additional axial length AL4 can also be in the range of 40 mm to 41 mm. In this embodiment, the additional axial length AL4 is 44.25 mm.

For example, if the first axial length AL1 is 55.7 mm and the sprocket arrangement axial length AL3 is 39.64 mm, then the ratio of the first axial length AL1 to the sprocket arrangement axial length AL3 is 1.4. However, the ratio of the first axial length AL1 to the sprocket arrangement axial length AL3 is not limited to this embodiment and the above ranges. For example, if the first axial length AL1 is 62.3 mm and the sprocket arrangement axial length AL3 is 39.64 mm, then the ratio of the first axial length AL1 to the sprocket arrangement axial length AL3 can be 1.57, or if the first axial length AL1 is 67 mm and the sprocket arrangement axial length AL3 is 39.64 mm, then the ratio of the first axial length AL1 to the sprocket arrangement axial length AL3 can be 1.69.

At least two of the plurality of internal spline teeth 63 are circumferentially arranged relative to the rotation center axis A1 at the second internal pitch angle PA22.

In other words, at least two of the plurality of internal spline teeth 63 of the first sprocket SP1 are circumferentially arranged relative to the rotation center axis A1 at the second internal pitch angle PA22. In this embodiment, the second internal pitch angle PA22 is different from the first internal pitch angle PA21. However, the second internal pitch angle PA22 may be substantially equal to the first internal pitch angle PA21. In this embodiment, the internal spline teeth 63 are circumferentially arranged at the first internal pitch angle PA21 in the circumferential direction D1. Two of the internal spline teeth 63 are arranged at the second internal pitch angle PA22 in the circumferential direction D1.

The internal spline non-driving surface 68 is disposed on a reverse side of the internal spline driving surface 66 in a circumferential direction D1. The internal spline non-driving surface 68 faces a reverse rotational direction D12, so as not to transmit the driving rotational force F1 from the first sprocket SP1 to the sprocket support body 28 during pedaling. In a state where the rear sprocket assembly 14 of the bicycle is mounted to the bicycle hub assembly 12, the internal spline non-driving surface 68 faces an external spline non-driving surface 50 of the bicycle hub assembly 12. At least ten internal spline teeth 63 each have a circumferential maximum width MW2. The internal spline teeth 63 each have a circumferential maximum width MW2.

However, the first internal spline surface angle AG21 and the second internal spline surface angle AG22 are not limited to this embodiment and the above range. As can be seen in FIG. 27, the internal spline teeth 63 cooperate with the external spline teeth 40 to transmit the driving rotational force F1 from the first sprocket SP1 to the sprocket support body 28. The internal spline driving surface 66 may contact the external spline driving surface 48 to transmit the driving rotational force F1 from the first sprocket SP1 to the sprocket support body 28. In a state where the internal spline driving surface 66 contacts the external spline driving surface 48, the non - driving surface 68 of the internal spline is spaced apart from the non - driving surface 50 of the external spline.
