Setup und Installation
Proper installation is crucial for optimal performance and safety. If you are unsure about any step, it is recommended to seek assistance from a professional bicycle mechanic.
Erforderliche Werkzeuge:
- Hex key set (e.g., 4mm, 5mm)
- Kabelschneider
- Kabelklemmen
- Grease (for bolts)
- Drehmomentschlüssel (empfohlen)
Installationsschritte:
- Mounting the Shifters:
Slide the shifter/brake levers onto the drop handlebars. Position them ergonomically for comfortable reach to both brake and shift levers. Tighten the clamp bolts to the manufacturer's recommended torque specifications (typically found on the clamp itself or in a general bicycle component torque guide). Ensure the levers are securely mounted and do not rotate on the bars.
- Bremszugverlegung:
Route the brake cables internally through the levers and then externally along the handlebars, securing them with appropriate cable ties or tape. Connect the brake cables to your bicycle's brake calipers/mechanisms. Adjust cable tension to ensure proper brake function and lever feel. The internal brake routing provides a clean aesthetic.
- Schaltzugführung:
Insert the shift cable into the shifter lever. The microSHIFT Advent shifters use external shifter cable routing. Route the cable along the handlebars and frame to the rear derailleur. Ensure the cable path is smooth and free of sharp bends that could impede shifting performance. Note: Only compatible with Campagnolo shift cables.
- Schaltwerksverbindung:
Connect the shift cable to your microSHIFT Advent rear derailleur. Secure the cable with the derailleur's cable fixing bolt. Ensure the cable is taut but not overly tight. Trim excess cable and crimp a cable end cap to prevent fraying.
- Erste Anpassungen:
Perform initial adjustments for both braking and shifting. For shifting, ensure the derailleur limits are set correctly and that the chain moves smoothly across all 9 gears. Fine-tune cable tension using the barrel adjuster on the shifter or derailleur for crisp, positive shifting action.
Bedienungsanleitung
The microSHIFT Advent Drop Bar Shifter Lever Set provides intuitive control over your bicycle's gearing and braking.
Gangwechsel:
- Hochschalten (auf ein kleineres Ritzel/einen höheren Gang): Use the smaller lever located behind the main brake lever. A short, crisp push will shift the chain to a smaller cog.
- Herunterschalten (auf ein größeres Ritzel/einen niedrigeren Gang): Use the larger lever, which is the main brake lever itself. Pushing the brake lever inwards (without engaging the brake fully) will shift the chain to a larger cog.
- Ensure you are pedaling forward while shifting to prevent damage to the drivetrain.
- The shifter levers are designed to be separate from the brake lever to avoid accidental braking during shifting.
Bremsen:
- To engage the brakes, pull the main brake lever towards the handlebar.
- This product is designed for 1x9 setups, meaning the left lever functions as a brake only.
- Den Bremsdruck gleichmäßig und progressiv ausüben.
Wartung
Regular maintenance will extend the life and performance of your microSHIFT Advent shifters.
- Reinigung: Regularly wipe down the shifters with a clean, damp Tuch. Vermeiden Sie die Verwendung aggressiver Chemikalien oder Scheuermittel.
- Kabelinspektion: Periodically inspect brake and shift cables for fraying, corrosion, or kinks. Replace damaged cables promptly.
- Schmierung: Apply a small amount of light lubricant to the pivot points of the levers and where cables enter the housing. Avoid over-lubrication, which can attract dirt.
- Anzugsmoment der Schrauben: Check the tightness of all mounting bolts periodically, especially after the first few rides. Refer to recommended torque specifications.
- Kompatibilität: Remember these shifters are compatible with ADVENT derailleurs only and Campagnolo shift cables. Using incompatible components may lead to poor performance or damage.
