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

- Identity & price
2003 Burley Rumba had an original MSRP $100 lower than 2002 Burley Rumba.

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

RPM = pedal turns per minute.
Gearing unavailable for this size.
Gearing unavailable for this size.
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.
