Well, the 48"to 58" spec would be wrong also.. the Automatix is a 137% overdrive 2 speed .. 58/48 would be 120% .. the 57"to 69" is also wrong at 121%

So if you are contemplating either bike, get the dealer to count the teeth on front and rear sprocket, then factor in tire size and get an accurate gear inch..

I've been running that hub for years.. nice hub, but it needs to be adjusted to keep from 'early shifting' .. the hubs were designed for large wheeled bikes, but got ported to the small wheelers.. you can read about some of my bikes Here and Here
