The essentials
The essentials
Braking
... to pedal and stop correctly.
Front + rear
press the lever release the lever
Remember which lever operates the
front brake and which the rear brake.
Ideally use both front and rear brakes
simultaneously.
Make sure no grease, oil, silicone
spray or wax comes on the brake pads,
disc rotor or rim.
Brake short and hard instead of
continuously to prevent overheating of
the components.
Longer braking could cause the brakes
to overheat and fail. As soon as you
note the braking force weakening,
stop and let the brakes cool down.
Do NOT touch the brake pads or the
disc brake rotor, especially after use.
There is danger of cutting or burning
as the rotor gets very hot.

Gear shifting
Up
Down The most effective pedalling frequency
is about 60-70 revolutions per minute.
For racing cyclists this can be over 90
rpm (much less downhill/uphill).
The gear display shows the gear in
use.
You can also push the
lever instead of pulling
it, if you find this
more comfortable.
Push it through to
shift up to three
gears at once.
Avoid using extreme gear ratios i.e.
big in front:small in rear or small in
front: big in rear. These greatly
increase the wear on the chain.
