4.4 Using the Gears
THE CORE IS A 7-GEAR BIKE.
LOWER GEARS MAKE FOR EASIER PEDALING BECAUSE THERE
IS LESS RESISTANCE, BUT YOU’LL COVER LESS GROUND WITH
EACH PEDAL STROKE. USE LOW GEARS FOR RIDING UPHILL,
TACKING ROUGH TERRAIN, OR TO RIDE SLOWLY.
HIGHER GEARS GIVE YOU MORE SPEED, AS YOU’LL COVER
MORE GROUND WITH EACH PEDAL STROKE. USE HIGH
GEARS FOR FASTER RIDING ON FLAT SURFACES OR WHEN
DESCENDING A HILL.
TO DOWNSHIFT TO A LOWER GEAR: PUSH THE DOWNSHIFT
BUTTON UNTIL THE DESIRED GEAR IS POSITIONED AT THE
GEAR INDICATOR MARK.
TO UPSHIFT TO A HIGHER GEAR: PUSH THE UPSHIFT LEVER
AWAY FROM YOU UNTIL THE DESIRED GEAR IS POSITIONED
AT THE GEAR INDICATOR MARK.
NOTE: YOU SHOULD HEAR A CLICKING SOUND WITH EACH
SUCCESSFUL GEAR SHIFT.
IMPORTANT: ONLY CHANGE GEARS WHILE IN FORWARD
MOTION AND ACTIVELY PEDALING.
