Turn the screw clockwise to shift the rear derailleur towards the wheel
and anticlockwise to shift it away from the wheel.
Continue by shifting the rear derailleur to the largest sprocket. Be care-
ful as you do so, as not to let the rear derailleur collide with the spokes.
When the chain runs on the biggest sprocket, see whether you can take
the rear derailleur even further by moving the shift lever to the end of
its travel. Then press the rear derailleur further towards the spokes by
hand. Spin the wheel. If the derailleur cage moves towards the spokes
or if the chain begins to move beyond the largest sprocket, the derail-
leur movement range needs to be limited. Turn the limit screw marked
“L clockwise until the rear derailleur is clear of the spokes.
The Gears
6.3.3. Front Derailleur
Adjusting the front derailleur is a delicate job. The range within which the
front derailleur keeps the chain on the chainring without itself touching
the chain is very small. It is often better to let the chain drag slightly on
the derailleur than to risk having the chain fall off the chainring, which
would block the drive. The swivelling range is reduced in the same way as
with the rear derailleur, i.e. by turning the limit screws marked “H“ and
“L. This is a job you should leave to your STEVENS dealer.
As with the rear derailleur, the cable of the front derailleur is subject to
lengthening and hence to reduced precision in gear changing.
If necessary, shift to the small chainring and increase the tension of the
Bowden cable by turning the adjusting bolt through which it passes in the
area of the down tube.
Caution:
Always check after an accident
whether the guide plates of
the front derailleur are still
parallel to the chainrings!
Danger:
Adjusting the front derailleur
is a very delicate job. Improper
adjustment can cause the
chain to jump o, thus inter-
rupting suddenly the drive
force. This can cause a fall!
Danger:
Be sure to go on a test ride
in a place free of trac, after
adjusting the gears of your
bicycle.
