  Speeds refers to the number of gears, which is determined by how many cogs are on a cassette.

• Gearing
  11-51 teeth
• Gear ratio
  464%

  Gear ratio shows the size of the gap between the largest and smallest cogs. When the difference is large, riders have access to both very hard and very easy gears; a smaller difference results in closer gear spacing, making it simpler to maintain a comfortable cadence. Also, keep in mind that the number of cogs (speeds) impacts how much each gear differs from the next.

• Smallest cog
  11 teeth
• Largest cog
  51 teeth
• Combination

  This describes the engineering behind the cassette's sprockets, which determines shifting speed, smoothness, and feel. It also affects shifting performance and wear under heavy load. Note that sprocket design can influence the selection of compatible drivetrain components.
