Key differences
Supported differences are shown below. Data limitations are labeled separately.
- Data limitation
No geometry is recorded for 2001 GT Thumper and 2003 GT Thumper.
- Identity & price
2003 GT Thumper had an original MSRP $250 lower than 2001 GT Thumper.

Ratio2.79:1
Estimated speed at 90 RPMGear

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.
