The mark on the twist shifter casing next to the
gear numbers informs the user of which gear has
been selected.
With the ROHLOFF Speedhub 500/14 gear hub,
the gear changes simultaneously as you turn the
twist shifter. The gear has been changed to the
selected position the moment you feel the detent
engage in the twist shifter. This ensures that you
change gears quickly and flawlessly when
stationary and while in all riding situations.
When you change gears, coupling elements
inside the hub move as they are subject to force
when you push the pedals. The grip shifter can be
easily turned from detent to detent when the bike
is stationary or low force is applied to the pedals.
The manual force required to turn the shift lever
increases as the pedal force intensifies.
