Front derailleur
Shift both shifters to the smallest number indicated and place the
chain on the corresponding cog and chainwheel. Disconnect the front
derailleur cable from the cable anchor bolt. Check the position of the front
derailleur; it should be parallel with the outer chainwheel and clear the
largest chainwheel by 1-3mm when fully engaged.
With the chain on the smallest chainwheel in front and the largest cog
in back, adjust the Low limit screw so the chain is centered in the front
derailleur cage. Reconnect the cable, pull any slack out, and tighten the
anchor bolt securely. Shift the front shifter to the largest chainwheel.
If the chain does not go onto the largest chainwheel, turn the high limit
screw in 1/4 turn increments counter-clockwise until the chain engages
the largest chainwheel. If the chain falls off the largest chainwheel, and
into the pedals, you will need to turn the High limit screw in 1/4 turn
increments clockwise until the chain no longer falls off.
Shift through every gear, using the barrel adjusters to fine tune the
cable tension. The barrel adjuster for the front derailleur is located on
the front shifter where the cable comes out of the shifter. Clockwise will
loosen the cable tension and direct the chain closer to the frame while
counter-clockwise will tighten the cable tension and direct the chain
away from the frame.
do not ride a bicycle that is not
shifting properly. overlooking proper
adjustments may cause irreparable
damage to the bicycle and/or
bodily injury. never move the shifter
while pedaling backward, nor pedal
backwards after having moved the
shifter. this could jam the chain and
cause serious damage to the bicycle
and/or rider.

ensure all bolts are secured tightly and the chain
does not fall off in either direction.

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.
