Gears
Shimano features
• A two-way self-returning lever

• Available in single speed, 8-speed and 11-speed
Using the Shimano gearing
The shifter uses a simple-to-use self-returning lever to change between gears. Pushing
it down with your thumb will shift into a lower gear and flicking the lever upwards with the
back of the thumb will shift into a higher gear. It is important to stop pedalling or back pedal
slightly when changing gear. The indicator window shows you which gear is selected.
Rohloff features
• A smooth twist motion to change gears (Grip Shift)
• Gear indicator markings are clearly marked on the shifter
• 14-speed
Using the Rohloff gearing
The shifter is manually operated using a twisting motion to switch between gears. It is
important to stop pedalling or back pedal slightly when changing gear. The marks on the
grip shift indicate which gear is selected.
