The principle of twist grips is different
(h)
. Turning the
right-hand grip towards you makes for a lower gear ra-
tio, while the same movement on the left produces a
higher gear – and vice versa. The shifting direction may
vary in this case, as well.
G
Always wear straight-cut trousers or use
trouser clips or the like. To make sure your
trousers do not get caught in the chain or the
chainwheels. Risk of an accident!
G
Shifting gears under load, i.e. while pedaling
hard, can make the chain slip. At the front de-
railleur the chain may even slip off the chain-
wheels and result in an accident! At the very least the
service life of the chain would be reduced considerably.

If there is play between bearing spindle and
cranks, they can sustain damage. Risk of
breakage!
A
Avoid gears which involve an extremely
oblique run of the chain as this will increase
wear!

It is crucial when switching gears to contin-
ue pedaling smoothly and without too much
force. Do not shift under load, and in particu-
lar not at the front derailleur, as this will shorten the ser-
vice life of your chain considerably. Furthermore, this
can lead to a chain-suck, i.e. the chain can get jammed
between Chainstay and chainwheels.
Checking and readjusting
The derailleur gears of your bike were carefully adjust-
ed by your MERIDA dealer before delivery. However,
Bowden cables may stretch a little over the first kilome-
ters, making gear shifting imprecise and the chain rattle.
Adjusting the front and rear derailleur accurately is a job
only for an experienced mechanic. If you want to try to
do the adjustment on your own, observe in addition the
operating instructions of the gear manufacturer on this
MERIDA CD-ROM. Contact your MERIDA dealer if you
have any problems with the gears.
I
For your own safety, bring your MERIDA bike
to your MERIDA dealer for its first inspection
after 100 to 300 kilometers, 5 to 15 hours of
initial use or four to six weeks, and at the very latest
after three months.
