Question: bike has how many gears?
Answer: You can think of gears as the same thing as speeds – a bike with 18 gears is an 18-speed bike. Bikes generally have 1, 3, 18, 21, 24, or 27 speeds. (10- and 15-speeds are obsolete and you don't see them on new bikes anymore.) Lower numbers are the low gears, and higher numbers are the high gears.
