A bicycle transmission is configured and arranged to improve the
durability of the transmission. The transmission basically has a
transmission operating device, a support structure, a front input
section, an intermediate transmission and a rear output section. The
transmission operating device operates the intermediate transmission to
change the gear ratio between the front input section and the rear output
section. The intermediate transmission has a plurality of drive members
arranged to move in the axial direction on an intermediate drive axle in
response to its pivotal movement shifting structure. An endless drive
member is operatively coupled between a rotatable driving member of the
front input section and one of the intermediate drive members. The
endless drive member remains substantially in a single plane during
shifting of the drive members on the intermediate drive axle.
