7 Speed Gear System
Your GIN X comes with a 7 speed Shimano freewheel (Note: the freewheel
is the cluster of sprockets on the rear wheel of the bike). This allows the
rider to maintain a comfortable level of effort and pedalling speed
throughout different terrains. For instance, while pedalling in lowest gear
(the largest sprocket), it will be easier to pedal up hills. In the highest
gear (the smallest sprocket), the rider will be able to reach higher
speeds on flat or downhill terrain. 1st gear is the lowest gear of this
drivetrain while 7th gear is the highest gear. Use the thumb shifter on the
right handlebar to shift gears up or down. To shift up press the lower
button. To shift down push the lever on the top of the shifter. A photo of
the shifter can be seen in the photo below:
