CHAINRINGS AND CRANK ASSEMBLIES

摘要

A chainring includes a first section having consecutive first teeth. Each of the first teeth includes a first load flank surface having a first wear resistance. The chainring also includes a second section coupled to the first section. The second section includes consecutive second teeth. Each of the second teeth includes a second load flank surface having a second wear resistance greater than the first wear resistance. The consecutive second teeth span an arc length corresponding to between one twelfth and one third of a circumference of a pitch circle of the chainring.
