of the shi-lever to the “shi” posion) will

promptly move the chain to a dierent gear.

With Shimano STI road shi-levers and three

chainrings, “hold” the front shi lever for a

moment before you release it. This is most

important when you shi gears from the

smallest chainring to the middle chainring.

Some front shi-levers have a ‘tab.’ Slightly

move the lever to a lower gear and the

derailleur will move in slightly so the

derailleur does not touch the chain.

To shi gears with internal gears

When you shi gears, coast (do not pedal).

Tension on the chain prevents the correct

operaon of the gear change mechanism and

could damage the mechanism.

Pedal systems

If your feet are connected to the pedals,

the connecon can allow you to pedal more

eciently, apply greater power to the pedals,

and increase your control of the bicycle.

Some bicycles are equipped with one of

these systems:

• Toe-clips and straps aach your feet to the

pedals with a strap and a locator (toe clip),

which wraps up and in front of your toes.

• Clipless pedals use a spring-loaded mechanism

to engage a cleat, a small plate aached to

the boom of a special cycling shoe.

WARNING: A pedal system that

operates incorrectly could cause

your feet to become trapped or

allow your feet to release from the

pedal unexpectedly, causing you to

lose control. Before riding, make

sure you are familiar with the pedal

system and that the pedal system

operates correctly.

WARNING: A handlebar end that

is not plugged or covered can cut the

rider in a crash. Parents should

regularly inspect a child’s bicycle and

replace damaged or missing grips.

retailer. If you choose to ride with one of these

systems, only wear shoes that are compable

with that system. Pracce entry and exit from

the pedals before you ride. Keep the pedals

and your shoes clean and free of debris that

could interfere with the pedal system. Make

sure any release mechanism operates correctly,

and adjust it for your riding.

Carry repair items

When you ride, carry a pump, spare inner

tube, patch kit, and tools so you can repair

your bicycle if it has a punctured re or other

mechanical problem. If you ride at night, include

spare bulbs and baeries for your lights.

Children and safety

If you allow your child to ride on a bicycle or in

a carrier or vehicle aached to a bicycle, you

must exert extra vigilance to ensure the child’s

safety. Children are not trained to recognize

hazards and may not respond correctly in an

emergency situaon. Never allow a child to

ride without supervision. Never leave a child

unaended in a child carrier or trailer. Always

make sure the child wears protecve gear,

especially an approved helmet.

It is parcularly important that you inspect

your child’s bicycle frequently for damage.

Pay extra aenon to the grips or handlebar

covers. In the event of a crash , an exposed

handlebar end presents a puncture hazard.

If you aach a child seat or trailer to YOUR

bicycle, make sure your bicycle is suitable

for the aachment of accessories. Read and

follow the instrucons that came with the

child seat or trailer.

If you are not familiar with the pedals or the

correct procedures, read the informaon that

came with the pedal system, or consult your
