Key differences
Supported differences are shown below. Data limitations are labeled separately.
- Identity & price
These bicycles are categorized differently: 2007 KHS Westwood is City & Commuter; 2004 KHS Westwood is Hybrid.
- Data limitation
No geometry is recorded for 2007 KHS Westwood and 2004 KHS Westwood.
- Gearing
2007 KHS Westwood has a 28% lower climbing ratio than 2004 KHS Westwood.
A lower ratio gives more mechanical advantage; rear-wheel rollout determines distance per crank turn.

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.
