Step 3:
When lifting the rear of the bike and turning the pedals by hand, use the gear change to
change the highest to the lowest gear one at a time. If the derailleur is adjusted correctly,
the gears should shift quickly without any grinding noise.
If there are still problems after you adjust the rear derailleur, you can ne-tune it.
Rotate the adjuster (C) clockwise if there is a problem when going from the lowest gear
to the highest gear.
Rotate the adjuster (C) counter-clockwise if there is a problem when going from the
highest gear to the lowest gear.
Turn the adjuster about a quarter turn at a time and then change the gears to see if the
problem is xed. Repeat step 3 if the problem persists.
