Gear Comparisons

When buying a new 29er bike I wanted to see how the gears compared to my 26” bikes.  This simple spreadsheet allows you to enter in the details for the 2 bikes and see how the gear ratios compare.

Gear Comparison Spreadsheet

It can be used to compare a road bike with an MTB, 2 road bikes or 2 MTBs.

The important parts are the figures for the top and bottom ends of the full range.  The number of feet travelled per pedal revolution in the lowest and highest gears.
