- Gearing
2014 Raleigh Talus 29 Sport has a 6% lower climbing ratio than 2013 Raleigh Talus 29 Sport.

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.
