d. Which gear should I be in?
The combination of largest rear and smallest
front gears (fig. 16) is for the steepest hills.
The smallest rear and largest front
combination is for the greatest speed. It is
not necessary to shift gears in sequence.
Instead, find the “starting gear” which is
right for your level of ability — a gear which is
hard enough for quick acceleration but easy
enough to let you start from a stop without
wobbling — and experiment with upshifting
and downshifting to get a feel for the
dierent gear combinations. At first,
practice shifting where there are no
obstacles, hazards or other trac, until
you’ve built up your confidence. Learn not to
use either the “smallest-to-smallest or
“largest-to-largest” gear combinations
because they can cause unacceptable stress
on the drive change. Learn to anticipate the
need to shift, and shift to a lower gear before
the hill gets too steep. If you have diculties
with shifting, the problem could be
mechanical adjustment. See your dealer for
help.
Figure 16. Front & Rear Gears
WARNING
Never shift a derailleur onto the largest or
the smallest sprocket if the derailleur is
not shifting smoothly.
The derailleur may be out of adjustment
and the chain could jam, causing you to
lose control and fall.
e. What if it won’t shift
gears?
If moving the shift control one click
repeatedly fails to result in a smooth shift to
the next gear chances are that the
mechanism is out of adjustment. Take the
bike to your dealer to have it adjusted.
