Bicycle Sprocket (16T)

Rear bicycle sprocket 16T (teeth) — 36 mm fit (three-spline, high-speed)

The 16-tooth (16T) rear driven sprocket is designed for installation on the rear hub of single-speed, road, city, and folding bicycles, as well as models with coaster brake hubs (such as "Ukraina", Torpedo, KhVZ) and planetary hubs. The sprocket is secured to the driver/hub using 3 internal slots (splines) and a snap ring. The 16T size provides high top speed and excellent rolling efficiency for dynamic riding on smooth asphalt.

Key Advantages and Features:

• High-speed profile (16T): Fewer teeth allow for higher speeds at the same pedaling cadence (compared to 18T–21T sprockets).
• Reliable three-spline mounting: The 36 mm mounting diameter with 3 slots prevents the sprocket from spinning on the hub even under heavy loads.
• Durable hardened steel: The wear-resistant metal alloy is resistant to tooth wear and the impact of wide single-speed chains (1/2" x 1/8").
• Chainline adjustment: The dished profile allows for chainline adjustment by installing the sprocket with the dish facing inward or outward.

Compatibility with Hubs and Bicycles:

• Coaster brake hubs (Single Speed / Torpedo): "Ukraina", "Aist", "Minsk", "Desna", "Salyut", KhVZ, PVZ, Velosteel, and their modern equivalents.
• Planetary hubs: Shimano Nexus (3, 7, 8 speeds), SRAM, Sturmey Archer (for three-spline fit).

Gear ratio tip: A 16-tooth sprocket provides a noticeable increase in speed compared to 19T–21T sprockets, but requires slightly more effort when starting and climbing hills.
