Best Answer

Two options:

a) it's a bike with 6 sprockets at the rear, and 3 chainrings at the front.

b) it's a bike with 9 sprockets at the rear, and two chainrings at the front.

Do note that technically speaking, while there may be 18 combinations, the bike will not have 18 usefully different gears. Maybe 15, the rest will be repeated.
