How to shift gear efficiently
•
Avoid shifting gear when the chain
is under heavy tension. Reduce your
pedalling power briefly when changing
gear.
•
Avoid accelerating on a high gear.
Instead, start off with a low gear and
shift up progressively to avoid putting
too much tension on the chain.
•
Avoid ‘’crossing the chain’’ by
alternating rear derailleur gear change
and front derailleur gear change.*
•
Think of shifting down before coming
to a complete stop so you can start
off again on an easy gear and prevent
premature wear to the system.
Advenant un déraillement soudain
de la chaîne, cessez immédiatement
de pédaler. Replacez soigneusement
la chaîne sur le plateau afin d’éviter
d’endommager le cadre et/ou les
composantes.
On the 24 speed model the following
gear combinations should be avoided to
prevent premature wear of the transmission
components:
Low front gear – High rear gear*
High front gear – Low rear gear*
* Not applicable on 9-speed model with only 1
front sprocket
