The Gears
6.1.2.1. Rear Derailleur
In the case of imprecise shifting increase the tension of the bowden ca-
ble by turning the adjusting bolt through which it passes at the entry to
the shift lever or rear derailleur. To do so, shift to the smallest sprocket
and turn the clicking bolts anticlockwise in half turns until the cable is
slightly tensioned.
After tensioning the Bowden cable check whether the chain readily
climbs onto the next larger sprocket. To find out you either have to turn
the cranks by hand or ride the bicycle and change gears.
If the chain readily climbs onto the next larger sprocket, check whether
it also readily shifts to the small sprockets when you change to a higher
gear. You may need several tries to get the derailleur system properly
adjusted.
6.1.2.2. Adjusting the Limit Stops
The rear derailleur is equipped with limit screws which limit the swiv-
el range of the rear derailleur, thus preventing the rear derailleur and
chain from colliding with the spokes or the chain from dropping off the
smallest sprocket. The limit screws are adjusted by your STEVENS deal-
er. They do not alter their position during normal use. After a fall you
should however always check the proper adjustment.
Shift with the right shifting lever to the highest gear. The inner cable
is then totally relaxed and the chain will run on the smallest sprocket.
Look from the rear of the bicycle at the cassette and check whether the
teeth of the smallest sprocket and the teeth of the guide pulley are all in
a perfectly vertical line.
Caution:
If your bicycle has tipped
over or the rear derailleur
received a blow, the rear
derailleur or its mount
might be bent. It is advis-
able to check its range of
movement and readjust the
limit screws, if necessary,
after such an incident or
after mounting new wheels
on your bicycle.
