How to Easily Adjust the Gears on Your Mountain Bike
To adjust the gears on your mountain bike, start by shifting to the highest gear in the rear and the lowest gear in the front. Then, use the barrel adjusters on your shifters to ensure the chain is lined up with each gear smoothly. If your chain is skipping or not smoothly shifting, check the limit screws on your derailleurs to ensure they’re properly adjusted. Remember to always make small adjustments and take note of what you do so you can easily backtrack if needed.
