Abstract: A rear sprocket comprises a sprocket body, a plurality of sprocket teeth, a plurality of spline teeth, a maximum spline distance, and a radial tooth-bottom distance. Each of the plurality of spline teeth has a spline crest. The maximum spline distance is defined from the rotational center axis to the spline crest. The radial tooth-bottom distance is defined from a rotational center axis to one of plurality of tooth bottom center points. The maximum spline distance is larger than the radial tooth-bottom distance. The spline crest of each of the plurality of spline teeth is positioned radially inwardly from the tooth outline of each of the plurality of sprocket teeth in the radial direction.

Abstract: An operating device comprises a base member, a first switch unit, and a first coupling structure. The first switch unit includes a first base and a first operating member. The first coupling structure couples the base member and the first base such that the first base is adjustable relative to the base member in a first direction and is adjustable relative to the first coupling structure in a first additional direction different from the first direction. The first coupling structure includes a first intermediate member and a first fastener. The first intermediate member is at least partially provided between the base member and the first base to guide the first base relative to the base member in at least one of the first direction and the first additional direction.

Abstract: A control device for a human-powered vehicle includes an electronic controller. The human-powered vehicle includes a crank axle that receives a human driving force, a first rotational body connected to the crank axle, a wheel, a second rotational body connected to the wheel, a transmission body engaged with the rotational bodies to transmit a driving force between the rotational bodies, a derailleur that operates the transmission body to shift a transmission ratio, and a motor that drives the transmission body. The electronic controller controls the motor to drive the transmission body with the motor without propelling the human-powered vehicle with the driving force of the motor in a case where a first condition in which the crank axle is rotated and the human-powered vehicle is propelled without the human driving force and a shifting condition for shifting the transmission ratio with the derailleur are satisfied.
