Key differences
Supported differences are shown below. Data limitations are labeled separately.
- Data limitation
No geometry is recorded for 2011 Rocky Mountain Altitude 10 and 2010 Rocky Mountain Altitude 10.
- Gearing
2010 Rocky Mountain Altitude 10 has a 6% lower climbing ratio than 2011 Rocky Mountain Altitude 10.
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.

Rear tire: 26×2.1.
Lowest0.65:1Highest4.00:1Total range618%
Speed unavailable: wheel or tire size is missing or unclear.
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.
