Key differences

Supported differences are shown below. Data limitations are labeled separately.

  1. Data limitation

    No geometry is recorded for 2014 Raleigh Cadent 1 and 2006 Raleigh Cadent 1.

  2. Gearing

    2014 Raleigh Cadent 1 has a 13% lower climbing ratio than 2006 Raleigh Cadent 1.

    A lower ratio gives more mechanical advantage; rear-wheel rollout determines distance per crank turn.

  3. Identity & price

    2014 Raleigh Cadent 1 had an original MSRP $155 lower than 2006 Raleigh Cadent 1.

    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.
