Key differences
Supported differences are shown below. Data limitations are labeled separately.
- Identity & price
These bicycles are categorized differently: 1998 Terry Classic is Road; 2000 Terry Classic is Touring.
- Handling
1998 Terry Classic has a 0.5° slacker head-tube angle than 2000 Terry Classic in the archived geometry. Frame size is not identified for 1998 Terry Classic and 2000 Terry Classic.
Fork offset, tire size and wheelbase also affect steering; head angle alone is not a handling verdict.
- Gearing
2000 Terry Classic has a 18% lower climbing ratio than 1998 Terry Classic.
A lower ratio gives more mechanical advantage; rear-wheel rollout determines distance per crank turn.
- Identity & price
2000 Terry Classic had an original MSRP $270 lower than 1998 Terry Classic.
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.

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.
