Tighten the pads, while respecting the setting, see previous chapter IV.1.
Wear of the wheel rims
As any other part that is subject to wear, the wheel rim should be checked regularly. The wheel rim can
weaken and break, causing you to lose control and fall.
WARNING: It is very important to check the wear of the wheel rims. If the mark becomes
invisible with a V-brake, it means that the wheel rim has reached its maximum wear for
safe use. A damaged wheel rim can be very dangerous and needs to be replaced. Adjust
the brake pads to maintain a spacing of 1 to 1.5 mm with the wheel rim.
Adjusting the gear changing system
Your bicycle has several manually interchangeable speeds with a
system with a rear derailleur. Use the right handle to make the desired
change.
The higher the indicator, the more difficult it will be to pedal and vice
versa.
Careful, never pedal backwards while changing gears and never force
the command lever.
For an optimum use of the gear-changing system, we recommend
avoiding changing gear other than during heavy pedalling sessions.
Adjusting the limit screws
The derailleur’s range of movement can be adjusted with the H and L screws.
The L screw allows you to adjust the upper limit (on the side of the largest
sprocket).
When you loosen the L screw, the chain is positioned more towards the outside
of the largest sprocket.
