Key differences
Supported differences are shown below. Data limitations are labeled separately.
- Handling
2000 GT Interceptor has a 0.7° slacker head-tube angle than 1996 GT Interceptor in the archived geometry. Frame size is not identified for 2000 GT Interceptor and 1996 GT Interceptor.
Fork offset, tire size and wheelbase also affect steering; head angle alone is not a handling verdict.
- Data limitation
Only 1996 GT Interceptor has enough published drivetrain data for gearing calculations.
Gearing comparison
Lower gears help on climbs. Higher gears suit higher speeds.
RPM
RPM = pedal turns per minute.
Gearing unavailable for this size.
Ratio2.69:1
Estimated speed at 90 RPMGear
Uses front tire 20×1.75; rear size isn’t listed.
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.

Historical specifications are presented as an archival reference. Components may have varied by market, size, or production run. Legacy reference geometry is model-level historical data whose corresponding frame size is not identified; compare those dimensions as reference values rather than size-normalized fit data.
