LYNX RACE LT 7.5

It's tuned for reliability and control rather than maximum speed. In mountain-bike land, this is a pedaling-speed measure - how fast it rolls when you're working for it. It trends this way because of typical trail-width tires and a solid drivetrain that supports efficient riding. On hardpack, the tire setup is biased toward rolling speed on firm ground.

On steep roads, it comes in at 8.6/10. Within Mountain bikes, it lands near the top. On climbs, the lowest gear feels very easy. The easiest gear works out to about 16.9 gear inches.
