Key differences

Supported differences are shown below. Data limitations are labeled separately.

  1. Data limitation

    No geometry is recorded for 2006 Raleigh MXR.

  2. Gearing

    2003 Raleigh MXR has a 10% lower climbing ratio than 2006 Raleigh MXR.

    A lower ratio gives more mechanical advantage; rear-wheel rollout determines distance per crank turn.

Gearing comparison

Lower gears help on climbs. Higher gears suit higher speeds.

RPM

RPM = pedal turns per minute.

2006 Raleigh MXR40T · 18T · 1-speed
Ratio2.22:1
Estimated speed at 90 RPMGear12.0 mph

Uses front tire 20×2.125; rear size isn’t listed.

Ratio2.00:1
Estimated speed at 90 RPMGear10.4 mph

Uses front tire 20×1.75; rear size isn’t listed.

How it works

Ratio = front teeth ÷ rear teeth. Hub gears also include the hub’s internal ratio. A 400% range means the highest ratio is four times the lowest.

Speeds are estimates from tire size and pedal cadence. Actual speeds vary.

Historical specifications are presented as an archival reference. Components may have varied by market, size, or production run. Legacy reference geometry is model-level historical data whose corresponding frame size is not identified; compare those dimensions as reference values rather than size-normalized fit data.
