Schlumpf gear change - how best to adjust your cadence?
the key is in where the freewheeling comes from. If you use your hands and shift up, pressing back slightly on the pedals in one direction results in immediate engagement while the other will freewheel for about a quarter rev. The same is true for shifting down except the directions are reversed. This is why shifting up is generally easier, because you tend to be putting force on the pedals forwards resulting in immediate engagement. I know that chuck uses the decelerate method to shift down, seems to work for him I haven't had enough time on one to learn how to shift well for myself, I just know that's how the hub works. -- flyer ------------------------------------------------------------------------ flyer's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/9894 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/72293 Posted Via Usenet.com Premium Usenet Newsgroup Services ---------------------------------------------------------- http://www.usenet.com |
