- Data limitation
No geometry is recorded for 2007 Jamis Quest and 2009 Jamis Quest.
- Data limitation
Only 2009 Jamis Quest has enough published drivetrain data for gearing calculations.
- Identity & price
2007 Jamis Quest had an original MSRP $225 lower than 2009 Jamis Quest.

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.
