ASSEMBLY

DERAILLEUR

Although the front and rear derailleurs are initially adjusted at the factory,

you will need to inspect and readjust both prior to riding the bicycle.

Rear Derailleur

Begin by shifting the rear shifter to largest number indicated, disconnect

the cable from the rear derailleur cable anchor bolt, and place the chain

on the smallest sprocket.

Adjust the High limit screw so the guide pulley and the smallest sprocket

are lined up vertically. Reconnect the cable, pull out any slack, and

retighten the anchor bolt securely. Shift through the gears, making sure

each gear achieved is done quietly and without hesitation. If necessary,

use the barrel adjuster to fine-tune each gear by turning it the direction

you want to chain to go. For example, turning counter-clockwise will

tighten cable tension and direct the chain towards the wheel. Shift the

rear shifter to the gear one and place the chain on the largest cog. Adjust

the Low limit screw in quarter turn increments until the guide pulley and

the largest cog are aligned vertically. Again, shift through each gear

several times, checking that each gear is achieved smoothly. It may take

several attempts before the rear derailleur and cable is adjusted properly.

Ensure all bolts are secured tightly and the chain does

not fall off in either direction.
