How do I shift the gears on my bike properly? |
I must be shifting them wrong because sometimes it skips and most of the time it makes a strange nosie. Is this a new problem? If it is new there are several things to be concerned over. 1) Is this happening only under a high load? 2) only in the front or rear derailleur? 3) only when shifting between certain gears? 4) does it skip then finally go into gear? Here are a few things to look at. Check your gears for worn or bent teeth. Check to see if your chain might be worn out also. Check for derailleur mis-alignment. If you are not sure how to check or make the adjustments go to a bike store and have them do the work. update: Your cable needs to be re-adjusted. Being a new bike take it back to where you got it, they should fix it. Cable adjustments on a new bike is not uncommon. bring it to a bike shop and get the gears checked and adjusted bring it to a shop and get it fixed, there's a problem with the sprocket and the chain |
