Speed Reading Course

Bought 18 spd used bike for exercise,what # gears use to begin;when do I change gears in motion or when stop?

I’ve never ridden a bike with speeds, just a normal old fashioned coaster brake bike, and even that was decades ago. I tested the bike, with no advice from the seller about the speeds or what that even means.The bike rides good, the brakes worked, bought it at a great price. Now I read online all about speeds/gears and still not “getting” it. My main attempt at understanding the speeds and gears: as long as it will never “lock up” on me, or as long as whatever gear it’s in on either side does not “matter” then I’ll consider it a safe mode of transportation. Just want it in the NORMAL ring/shifter mode to ride at a slow/normal pace. Can’t ride a cruiser bike – it’s too huge and heavy, and can’t pick it up should it fall. This one is a 24″ bike, easy to lift and fits fine.

First and Best thing to do. Take it to your local bike shop for a tune up or at the very least a saftey check. Though you may think the bike is fine there are things that a shop knows to look for to make sure nothing is wrong with it.

When your there ask for a quick explantion of how the gears work. It’s a lot easier to explain this to someone when the bike is right in front of you. They can also show you what gears you don’t want to be in at the same time because its bad for the chain.
