Key differences

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

  1. Data limitation

    No geometry is recorded for 2005 Burley Canto and 2006 Burley Canto.

  2. Gearing

    2006 Burley Canto has a 7% lower climbing ratio than 2005 Burley Canto.

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

  3. Identity & price

    2006 Burley Canto had an original MSRP $100 lower than 2005 Burley Canto.

    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.

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.
