d. Which gear should I be in?

The combination of largest rear and smallest front gears (fig. 10) is

for the steepest hills. The smallest rear and largest front combination

is for the greatest speed. It is not necessary to shift gears in sequence.

Instead, find the “starting gear” which is right for your level of ability

— a gear which is hard enough for quick acceleration but easy enough

to let you start from a stop without wobbling — and experiment with

upshifting and downshifting to get a feel for the different gear

combinations. At first, practice shifting where there are no obstacles,

hazards or other traffic, until you’ve built up your confidence. Learn

to anticipate the need to shift, and shift to a lower gear before the hill

gets too steep. If you have difficulties with shifting, the

problem could be mechanical adjustment.

See your dealer for help.

Cross-chain gears should be avoided at all times as these will quickly

wear out the chain, and possibly also the derailleurs, chainrings, and

sprockets. Cross-chain gears occur when the chain is on both the

largest chainring at the front and the largest sprocket at the rear, or

alternately both the smallest chainring at the front and the smallest

sprocket at the rear (see fig. 10). These positions orient the chain at

an angle with respect to the centerline of the bicycle, which places

greater stress on the drivetrain components. There should be no

need to resort to cross-chain gears as equivalent ratios can be found

by using other combinations of front and rear gears.

WARNING: Never shift a derailleur onto the largest or the

smallest sprocket if the derailleur is not shifting smoothly.

The derailleur may be out of adjustment and the chain could

jam, causing you to lose control and fall.

CAUTION: Never pedal for long periods in cross-chain gears as these

combinations place unnecessary stress on your bicycle’s drivetrain,

and may result in premature wearout and decreased performance.

E. Pedals

Cervélo bicycles are not shipped with pedals, which permits the dealer

and customer to select and install pedals appropriate for the intended

use of the bicycle. Please consult with your dealer to ensure you have

been provided all manufacturer’s documentation for the installed

pedals, and take responsibility to ensure that you have read and fully

understand all documentation before riding any bicycle equipped

with unfamiliar pedals.

1. Toe Overlap is when your toe can touch the front wheel when you

turn the handlebars to steer while a pedal is in the forwardmost

position. This is common on small-framed bicycles, and is avoided

by keeping the inside pedal up and the outside pedal down when

making sharp turns. On any bicycle, this technique will also prevent

the inside pedal from striking the ground in a turn.

WARNING: Toe Overlap could cause you to lose control and

fall. Ask your dealer to help you determine if the combination

of frame size, crank arm length, tire size, pedal design and

shoes you will use results in pedal overlap. Note that component

changes to your bicycle (cranks, tires, pedals) can result in a

reduction of toe-clearance; consult your dealer about any

component changes and use caution when first riding the

bicycle following a component change. Whether you have

overlap or not, you must keep the inside pedal up and the

outside pedal down when making sharp turns.
