Flat Bar Road Shifters -

(used on specic models)

Flat bar road bikes require a much different shifter set-up than

road bikes with drop style handlebars. This shifting system is

modeled after those found on many mountain bikes. Both the

front and rear shifters use two separate levers; one operated by

your thumb and the other operated by your index nger. Both

levers are located toward the underside of the handlebar.

To shift the rear derailleur from a smaller cog to a larger one,

push the larger lever forward with your thumb. To shift from a

larger cog to a smaller one, pull back on the smaller lever with

your index nger. To shift the front derailleur from a smaller

chainring to a larger one, push the larger lever forward with your

thumb. To shift from a larger chainring to a smaller one, pull back

on the smaller lever with your index nger.
