Gears
The gears are operated by controls on the handlebars (gear lever, twist
grips, ...). The gear shift allows you to adjust the gear of your bicycle and
the transmission to the current situation. On a straight level stretch, a
higher gear is sensible to achieve and maintain a higher speed without
having to pedal too much. As soon as you start going uphill, a lower gear
is beneficial because it is important to be able to climb the hill with little
effort. Select the gears so that your legs are always moving at a steady
pace.
Derailleur
This system lifts the chain on to a
sprocket when the gear is changed. The
chain must continue moving so that the
teeth of the sprocket can engage with
the chain links easily and smoothly. For
a successful gear change, therefore, you
must keep pedalling forwards, never
backwards – but at the same time pedal
lightly without force.

about the handling of this brake.
4. Undo the axle nuts using an 18 mm spanner, turning anticlockwise.
5. Take off the chain.
6. Then remove the rear wheel from the frame. Turn the gears slightly to
the rear, so that it is easier to guide the sprocket.
