Good chart, thanks but that doesn't answer the whole question.
actually, that website has a lot of good info on the gears too!
the gears, they have different numbers of teeth. so if you buy a bike with the veloce gear set, will it have the same teeth numbers as the next bike with Veloce gear set? or are some more set up for flats and some more setup for hills?

I think it depends on if it is the same Veloce components. There is a compact double Veloce now, and when I bought my bike there was a double Veloce option and a triple option. I'm not sure if there are different rear cassettes, but probably there have been changes year-to-year. So if you have a 2002 bike with a Veloce triple setup, it is probably not exactly the same as what you'd buy now, when most bike sold with Veloce components (which isn't many!) have the compact double.
And I know that goes for Shimano, too.
