  • Where is the front derailur to be set when doing this?

  • @irtizak Front Deraileur should be on the middle or lower gear innitially.

  • Initial adjustments should be made on smaller chain ring if you are using a double or the middle ring if you have a tripple. But test all rings.--Saul

  • Maximize your chain tension and wrap by shifting onto a big cog on the front and a big cog on the back.
