MAIN COMPONENTS

SHIFTING

Function and Operation/The Derailleur System

The word derailleur refers to the derailing or shifting of the
chain from one sprocket to another. The derailleur system in­cludes rear derailleurs,the shift levers,and the cables. A vari­ety of gear ratios allows you to maintain a constant rate of

pedal revolutions in spite of changes in terrain, climatic condi­tions and your physical condition.

Never attempt to shift gears when stopped or when back ped­alling. When you shift, reduce your pressure on the pedals;
excessive chain tension makes shifting difficult. Avoid shifting
when going over railroad tracks or other bumpy surfaces,or
the chain may not shift properly and may come off.
The GRIP-SHIFT,Figure 4,are operated by GRIPSHIFT
control.right-hand GRIP controls the rear derailleur. Choose
the gear combination most comfortable for the road
conditions,and you should be able to maintain a constant rate
of pedalling. It is not essential that various gear combinations
be used in sequence.

Figure 4,Shift Levers Grip Shift

A properly adjusted drivetrain and derailleur system is quiet. If
an unusual noise accompanies or follows any shift, try mov­ing the GRIPSHIFT slightly. If the noise persists or grows
louder, stop the bicycle and try to locate the noise. If
necessary,ask your aprilia dealer to identify and correct any
problems.

Cleaning and lubrication of the chain

Keep the chain as free of dirt as possible. After cleaning with a
chain cleaning set,allow the chain to air dry and then apply
the proper bicycle oil. Keep in mind that excessive oil on the
chain will attract more dirt.
Carefully apply oil only to the pivot points of each link.

Cleaning of the freewheel

The freewheel should be kept as clean as possible. Remove
the surface dirt that gathers around the cog with solvent and
a brush. Do not use gasoline.
To clean and lubricate the bearings, remove the freewheel
unit from the hub.

Adjustment

Check that the derailleurs have been properly adjusted if:

- shifting is sluggish or difficult

- you hear a rubbing or grinding noise

- the chain rubs on any part of the bicycle or falls off during or
after a shift.

The rear derailleur (Figure 5) should be checked and adjusted
by your aprilia dealer first.

Removal of spoke protector may cause technical troubles.
Apply to an Authorized aprilia Service Center.

WHEEL

Inspect your wheels frequently to make sure that there are no
loose,damaged,or broken spokes.
Remember:If a wheel is not in good condition, both the range,
the effectiveness of the brakes and the strength of the wheel
are greatly reduced.

Tire Inspection

Keep your tires inflated to the pressure molded on the tire
sidewalls.Use a gauge and a bicycle pump whenever possi­ble.

Avoid filling your tires at gas stations; because of the greater
pressure and volume of air their pumps release,blowouts are
very possible.

When you fill your tires,check to see that each tire is properly
seated in the rim and that there are no defects on its surface.If
a tire shows signs of excessive wear, dry rot, or if it is badly
cut, replace it as soon as possible.

5) Batteries have to be charged every three months at
least,also when the bicycle is not being used.

This maintenance schedule is based on normal usage. If you ride
your bike more than average or in rain, snow, or off road condi­tions, you will want to go over your bicycle more often than the
schedule suggests. If any part appears to be malfunctioning, check
and adjust it immediately if you can do so yourself,or consult your
dealer.
Never ride any bicycle that is not operating properly.

Security

To avoid theft, observe the following precautionary measures:

1. Keep a record of the serial number in a safe place.
