Key differences

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

  1. Data limitation

    No geometry is recorded for 2008 Jamis Dakar XCR Team and 2009 Jamis Dakar XCR Team.

  2. Gearing

    2008 Jamis Dakar XCR Team has a 24% lower climbing ratio than 2009 Jamis Dakar XCR Team.

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

  3. Identity & price

    2008 Jamis Dakar XCR Team had an original MSRP $1,100 lower than 2009 Jamis Dakar XCR Team.

    Original MSRP is the published list price when new, not today’s used-bike value.

Gearing comparison

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

RPM

RPM = pedal turns per minute.

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.
