Click once to move the chain from the largest sprocket to the next smaller one. Turn the pedals to test if it
shifted successfully. If it did not move to the nexts procket, then turn the barrel adjuster 1/4 turn clockwise to
loosen inner wire tension and pedal again to test the shift.
If it still does not shift to the next sprocket, try another 1/4 turn and pedal until it shifts smoothly to the next
sprocket.
Once on the second largests procket, test using the same method to make sure it goes down smoothly to
each of the next smaller sprockets, until you are back down to the smallest sprocket.
If after adjusting the shifting, your VOLT remains unable to shift smoothly, be sure to check your derailleur
hanger to confirm that it is straight. If the bike falls on its side, this is the part of the bike that will take the hit. It
is designed to bend inward in order to prevent damage from occurring to the rest of the bike. To make sure
that your hanger is straight, and not bent inward or twisted in any way, stand behind the VOLT and look to see
if the hanger is perfectly aligned with the derailleur’s pulley wheels. There should also not be any visible bend
in the hanger material. If the hanger appears to be bent in anyway, visit Oh Wow Cycle website to order a
replacement.
If you are uncertain about any aspect of your gears or any of these instructions, take your VOLT to a bicycle
mechanic and have the mechanism checked.
