Key differences
Supported differences are shown below. Data limitations are labeled separately.
- Data limitation
No geometry is recorded for 2013 Kona Rove.
- Gearing
2021 Kona Rove has a 11% lower climbing ratio than 2013 Kona Rove.
A lower ratio gives more mechanical advantage; rear-wheel rollout determines distance per crank turn.
Selected-size geometry
Geometry overlay
Frames share one scale and a bottom-bracket alignment. Size labels differ by brand; schematic drawing aids are identified below.
Gearing comparison
Lower gears help on climbs. Higher gears suit higher speeds.
RPM
RPM = pedal turns per minute.
Lowest1.00:1Highest4.55:1Total range455%
Speed unavailable: wheel or tire size is missing or unclear.
Lowest1.13:1Highest4.18:1Total range372%
Speed unavailable: wheel or tire size is missing or unclear.
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.
