    I worked on my bike for 6 hours and couldn’t figure this problem out. Not one other video I watched showed me the solution in a detailed, systamatic way. Thank you so much for this amazing video, it solved all my problems.

      I’m nowhere near as tenacious as you, so after two minutes I searched RUclips and found this excellent video and got the same result.

      The tourney rear derailleur come with a b tension screw that is to small. Replace that and it will be easier

    Derailleurs were always such a mystery to me. I needed to index mine and a simple barrel adjustment took care of it. This really helped with my Tourney.

  • @d53101
    @d53101 Год назад +4

    Finally I learned how to set the limits on my Tourney derailure. Annoyingly the limit screws on the Tourney aren’t labeled. Since I don’t have a bike repair stand I use my trunk mounted bike rack instead. Works well.

      You can take this info and apply it to any derailleur, provided you can identify 'high' and 'low' limit screws you're good to go! This is a brillant no fuss instruction and I'm grateful to the presenter!

  • @MarkLaFond-jr7ph

    Tell ya Bud: This is the absolute best derailleur adjustment vid on the tube. Just bought a new Aventon Soltera 7 E-bike with the Shimano Tourney system and would not go into 7th gear no matter what I did. Mostly because I had no idea what I was doing and very frustrated. Following your steps 1 by 1, it now works flawlessly. Can't thank you enough. Next up, you should do a simple chain cleaning and lubrication vid. Thanks again Sir.

    You sir deserve a big applause. I watch the video from park tools and I was like wtf are you talking about. After struggling for 2 hours today in adjusting it I took a ride to test and it was messed up. I called a bike shop got quoted 15 bucks but then I did another search and ran across your video and I have to say it's golden. You explained everything in a way that's it's easy to understand and without alot of extra mumbo jumbo. I took another shot at it and I think I got it right. If not I'll take another shot at it when I get my bike stand. Your video was key to my success.
    So I thank you very much. 👍👍👍👏👏👏🙌🙌🙌🤝🤝🤝

  • @mrbigshot180
    @mrbigshot180 7 месяцев назад +1

    Totally concise and perfect instructions.....Thank you! FYI-I don't have a bike stand, so working in the garage, I have a wooden beam, took a screw hook and put it into the beam. Then took a small bungee cord and strapped the front wheel to the frame, so it doesn't spin. Then took a ratchet strap with one end in the hook, and the strap was wrapped through the rear rack. Finally, it was just a matter of ratcheting the strap until I got the rear wheel off the ground to make the derailleur adjustments. Of course a repair stand would be steadier, but I only do minor stuff to the bike, and this worked out perfectly.

  • @stevemarino5745
    @stevemarino5745 4 года назад +4

    Excellent video. Thanks! I was able to get mine set very quickly. The only trouble was that the chrome part that the derailleur attaches to, which then attaches to the frame, was bent inward. So I wasn't able to get the chain all the way onto the high gear. All it took was a big screwdriver and some pulling on it to straighten that out. Note: a lot of the bikes have aluminum frames these days, and you DO NOT want to bend the dropouts on an aluminum frame. You can bend aluminum once, but unlike steel, it will break if you try to bend it again. So if you run into this problem on your bike, make sure you are placing your screwdriver or small crowbar onto the steel chrome piece to bend it back out, and not the frame dropout itself.

    Thank you for going over this so well , it’s something I always forget by the time i need to adjust my derailleur again.
    I prefer to start this procedure by adjusting the cable clamp first, so that the cable is adjusted to be tight when the chain is set on the 7th, highest gear.

  • @PilotViewProductions
    @PilotViewProductions Год назад +1

    Excellent video....totally helped me. We bought a Lectric 2.0 bike for my wife recently and it had a Shimano Tourney derailleur. The Lectric website said to watch their 'all inclusive' video on how to set it. Guess what? The only part that matched was turning the barrel adjuster to index the gears. I spent the better part of this afternoon guessing at the high and low adjusters cause they didn't match the video. You saved me a lot of grief my friend and thanks for the clear and concise video with excellent lighting and vocalization. I've watched enough poorly lit videos with bad sound to appreciate yours to the 'nth' degree. Appreciate the work you put into it. Dean
