Lubrication 

All the pivoting points of the front and rear derailleurs should be lubricated 

with light oil at least every month.  Be sure to wipe off any excess oil to 

prevent attraction of dirt into the mechanisms. The shifting cables should 

be cleaned and re-coated with a thin layer of grease every six months, or 

whenever new cables are being installed. 

Adjustment – Rear Derailleur 

The Low limit screw determines how far the rear derailleur will travel 

toward the wheel of the bicycle, while the High limit screw determines how 

far he cage will travel toward the frame. 

1. Shift the rear shifter to the largest number indicated, disconnect the

rear derailleur cable from the cable anchor bolt and place the chain on

the smallest sprocket.

2. Adjust the High limit screw so that chain and the smallest sprocket

are lined up vertically. Remove any slack in the cable by pulling it taut,

then re-connect the cable and tighten the cable anchor bolt securely.

3. Shift up through the gears makes sure that each gear is achieved

quietly and without hesitation.

If noise occurs, use the barrel adjuster to fine-tune the cable tension. 

Turning the barrel adjuster clockwise will decrease cable tension and 

allow the derailleur cage to move farther away from the bicycle in 

small increments. Turning counter-clockwise will increase cable 

tension and bring the cage closer to the bicycle. This will micro-adjust 

the positioning of the derailleur cage in relation to the freewheel. 

Simply put; turn the barrel adjuster the direction you want the chain to 

go. 

4. Shift the chain onto the largest sprocket; adjust the low limit screw so

the chain and the largest cog are lined up vertically. If you are unable

to get the chain and the largest cog, turning the Low limit screw

counter-clockwise will enable the chain to move towards the wheel.

5. Shift through the gears ensuring each gear is achieved quietly and

without hesitation.

Adjustment – Front Derailleur

1. Shift the rear shifter to the smallest number indicated, then shift the front

shifter to the smallest number indicated.  Disconnect the front derailleur

cable from the cable anchor bolt and place the chain on the smallest

chainwheel.

2. Make sure the front derailleur cage is parallel with the outer chainwheel

on the crankset.  There must be a 3-5mm gap between the bottom of the

derailleur cage and the top of the outer chainwheel teeth to ensure the

derailleur will clear the chainwheel when shifting.

3. Adjust the low limit screw so the chain is centered in the middle of

derailleur cage.  Pull all slack out of the cable by pulling it taut, then

reconnect the cable and tighten the cable anchor bolt securely.

4. Shift the front shifter into the largest gear and pedal the bike so the chain

jumps to the largest chainwheel. If the chain does not shift onto the

largest chainwheel, you will need to turn the High limit screw counter-

clockwise until the chain moves to the largest chainwheel.  If the chain

falls into the pedals, the High limit screw has been tuned too far.  You will

need to readjust the High screw clockwise in 1/4 turn increments until the

chain no longer falls off.

5. Shift through each gear ensuring all are achieved quietly and without

hesitation.

6. The barrel adjuster for the front derailleur is located on the shift

mechanism. Turning clockwise will decrease cable tension and allow the

front derailleur cage to move away from the bike, while turning counter-

clockwise will increase tension and bring the cage closer to the bike.  If

you are experiencing problems shifting between gears, use the barrel

adjuster to fine-tune the cable tension.

NOTE: It may take several adjustments to achieve the desired positioning.
