Key differences
Supported differences are shown below. Data limitations are labeled separately.
- Data limitation
No geometry is recorded for 1998 Raleigh MXR Mini and 2002 Raleigh MXR Mini.
- Gearing
1998 Raleigh MXR Mini has a 11% lower climbing ratio than 2002 Raleigh MXR Mini.
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.
Ratio1.78:1
Estimated speed at 90 RPMGear
Uses front tire 16×1.75; rear size isn’t listed.
Ratio2.00:1
Estimated speed at 90 RPMGear
Uses front tire 16×1.75; 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.
