WARNING: It is very important to check the wear of the wheel rims. A damaged
wheel rim can be very dangerous and needs to be replaced.
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 stops
The derailleur travel is adjusted using the H and L screws.
Screw L is used to adjust the upper stop (large gear side).
By loosening screw L, the chain is positioned further outside the large
sprocket.
Screw H is used to adjust the lower stop (small pinion side).
By loosening screw H, the chain is positioned further outside the small
sprocket.
These manipulations are carried out by quarter turn. With each adjustment,
you must obtain perfect alignment between the sprocket, the chain and the pulley of the rear
derailleur.
