Depends on where you are and what you are riding.
BMXes usually call it a driver at the back and a sprocket at the front.
Other bikes use different names.
At the rear, if it's only one, it's either a single speed freewheel, or a sprocket.
If it's more than one it's either a cassette or a multi-speed freewheel.
At the front it's called chain wheels or chain rings.

What are the common signs of worn cassette teeth on a bicycle?
Common signs of worn cassette teeth on a bicycle include skipping gears, difficulty shifting, chain slipping, and excessive chain noise. This can happen due to regular wear and tear on the cassette teeth over time.
What are the advantages of using a skip tooth bicycle chain compared to a regular bicycle chain?
A skip tooth bicycle chain has larger gaps between the teeth, allowing for easier cleaning and less chance of debris buildup. This design can also reduce the overall weight of the chain, leading to improved efficiency and performance.
How do I determine the correct bike chain size for my bicycle when sizing a bike chain?
To determine the correct bike chain size for your bicycle, you need to count the number of gears on the rear wheel and the number of teeth on the front chainring. This information will help you choose the appropriate chain length for your bike.
What is the purpose of the front chain ring on a bicycle and how does it affect the gear ratio?
The front chain ring on a bicycle is used to transfer power from the pedals to the rear wheel through the chain. It affects the gear ratio by determining how many teeth are engaged with the chain, which in turn affects how much force is required to pedal and how fast the bike can go.
How does a bicycle designer use math?
A bicycle designer uses maths to work out the frame angles, and the gearing. The number of teeth on the chainwheels, sprockets (cassette), chain length, and so on, all depend on maths.
What is a good title for a science fair board about teeth?
"How do teeth respond to heavy metal music?" "How do teeth respond to heavy metal metal?" "How do metal respond heavy metal metal metal?" "How Heavy do metal metal metal metal metal?" "Heavy do metal metal heavy metal teeth metal?" "How do teeth respond to acid/alkali?"
What do you call those metal things for braces?
brackets? (square/circle things glued to teeth) wire? (self explanatory)
What is the purpose of a bike chain ring and how does it contribute to the overall performance of a bicycle?
The bike chain ring is a component that helps transfer power from the rider's legs to the wheels of the bicycle. It is attached to the crankset and connects to the chain, allowing the rider to pedal and propel the bike forward. The size and number of teeth on the chain ring affect the gear ratio, which determines how easy or hard it is to pedal. By changing the chain ring size, riders can adjust the bike's gearing to suit different terrains and riding conditions, ultimately improving the overall performance and efficiency of the bicycle.
What is the gear ratio of a bicycle with a chainring size of 53 teeth and a cassette cog size of 39 teeth?
The gear ratio of a bicycle with a chainring size of 53 teeth and a cassette cog size of 39 teeth is 1.36:1.
What is the rear derailleur capacity of this bicycle model?
The rear derailleur capacity of this bicycle model is the maximum difference in teeth between the smallest and largest gears it can accommodate, typically around 30 teeth.
How do the number of crank teeth affect the performance of a bicycle?
The number of crank teeth on a bicycle affects the gear ratio, which determines how easy or hard it is to pedal. More teeth typically provide more power for uphill climbs, while fewer teeth allow for faster speeds on flat terrain.
What is sprocket?
It's the small toothed wheel that the chain runs over by the rear wheel, although in engineering terms it is any toothed wheel designed for a chain, including the one rotated by the pedal and crank on a bicycle.
