    Abstract: A bicycle drive train comprises a sprocket assembly and a floating sprocket. The sprocket assembly comprises a first rotational center axis, a first sprocket, and a second sprocket. The first sprocket includes at least one first sprocket tooth and at least one first axially displaceable tooth with respect to the first rotational center axis. The second sprocket includes at least one second sprocket tooth. The at least one first axially displaceable tooth is displaceable relative to the at least one first sprocket tooth toward the at least one second sprocket tooth. The floating sprocket comprises a second rotational center axis and an axially sliding surface. The axially sliding surface is to support the floating sprocket movably relative to the sprocket assembly in an axial direction with respect to the second rotational center axis.
