gear cluster to a larger sprocket results in a downshift. Moving the chain from a larger sprocket to a smaller sprocket results in an
upshift. In order for the derailleur to move the chain from one sprocket to another, the rider must be pedaling forward.
c. Shifting the Front Derailleur:
The front derailleur, which is controlled by the left shifter, shifts the chain between the larger and smaller chainrings. Shifting
the chain onto a smaller chainring makes pedaling easier (a downshift). Shifting to a larger chainring makes pedaling harder (an
upshift).
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 combinationis 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 different gear combinations. At first, practice
shifting where there are no obstacles, hazards or other traffic, until you’ve built up your
confidence. Learn to anticipate the need to shift, and shift to a lower gear before the hill
gets too steep. If you have difficulties with shifting, the problem could be mechanical
adjustment. See your dealer for help. practice shifting where there are no obstacles,

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.
