Front Derailleur Alignment

1. Shift the rear derailleur to the center (6th) cog.

2. Enter set mode by pushing and holding the SET

    button for 2 seconds. Both LEDs will blink green.

3. Press either front shifter button to enter the

    front derailleur adjustment mode (by factory 

    default is the left one but you can change it in 

    the WE Dashboard Software).

4. The front derailleur will move in to the gear

    selected.

5. Micro-adjust the front derailleur position using

    the REAR shifter. Shift between chainrings using

    the front shifter.

    a. Big chainring adjustment: Using the REAR 

        shifter, adjust the derailleur cage plate position.

        Ensure 1mm of clearance (not more) between the 

        outer derailleur cage plate and the chain.

    b. Small chainring adjustment: Using the REAR 

        shifter, adjust the derailleur cage plate position. 

        Ensure approximately 1mm (not more) of clearance

        between the inner derailleur cage plate and the chain.

6. When both inner and outer positions are adjusted 

    properly, exit set mode---push and hold the SET button 

    for 2 seconds. The green light will stop blinking and the

    front derailleur zero position will be saved.

Limit Screws Adjustment

After both derailleurs alignment it is needed to proceed 

with the limit screws adjustment. There are two screws for 

upper and lower position, positioned in the back of the rear 

derailleur.

Upper Position Adjustment

To adjust the upper position limit, shift the rear derailleur 

to the largest cog. Then tighten the upper position screw 

(outermost screw) until it touches the internal stop.  Back 

the limit screw off a half-turn.

Lower Position Adjustment

To adjust the lower position limit, shift the rear derailleur 

to the smallest cog. Then tighten the lower position screw 

(innermost screw) until it touches the internal stop.  Back 

the limit screw off a half-turn.

Do not tighten the limit screw against its stop. Tightening 

may result in reduced performance or damage to RD 

internals.
