FINALLY!!! It’s properly explained in a detailed and concise manner with simultaneous videos of the crank and shifters. I just saw three different videos before that took 2-3x longer to explained these tips with only one camera angle. For a noob like me this video cleared up any confusion I had. Thank you!
My brother just gave me a trek bike with these kinds of shifters,and I'm so happy that you were the first video that came up on the RUclips channel and thank you for helping a lot of people like me that we are still Learning about road bikes and Salutations from Sunny San Diego.
hahaha....when I first started riding I went straight from MTB to a Tri-bike. When I first got on a road I realized I had no idea how to shift because I always used the end bar shifters on my Tri-bike. I also didn't want to ask anyone cause I had been riding for a while so I had to come home and watch a video like this
I try to remember this way: 1. For shifting. Big levers shift to big cogs and small lever shifts to small cogs. 2. Front cogs: Big/hard/fast and small/easy/slow 3. Rear cogs: Big/easy/slow and small/hard/faster
Excellent video. I have inherited my son's Specialized bike for the weekend and I am so excited to get on it & RIDE NOW THAT I know how to shift the bloody gears!
Lol... Guess I should've asked some questions before leaving the bike shop with my first road bike today!!! 😂 Luckily I just rode around the block! I upgraded from an FX... I got down the road and realized I didn't know how the hell to get through my gears!!!!!! Very helpful video!
I just booked Trek Domane AL 3 and I didn’t know how to shift gears in cycle so I know in super bikes but new to cycling with especially gears one so this is really easy to understand and thank you so much for making this video and it’s very helpful for all of us so appreciate your help and support trek ❤👍🤝🙏😁
I was very confused on how to shift on my roadbike. I somewhere read the advice and found it very helpful: I now use the big ring for flats and downhil until the 3rd biggest cog on the rear. Once it gets too hard to maintain my cadence I switch to the small "Moutain Chainring" on the front. I replaced my front chainring for a 46 and my rear cassette is 11-34. wich gives me all the nice little gear changes in a speedrange, i actually ride (im not a strong rider and not racing at all. just recreational riding). I never saw the sense in having 2/3 of my gears wasted in speeds above 40km/h. When I reach that speed I usually roll down a hill.
Thank you! This helped me a lot! I've recently changed from my old bike where I shifted intuitively and can't read the numbers on the shifters anymore and my new bike only says high and low and has completely different shifters, so I needed some help to understand what actually happens down there.
OMG THANK YOU!!! Best part is seeing the hand movements with the shifting. I’m gonna watch like eight more times but 👍🏽 Whole lever= up to bigger chainring OR cassette (hard or easy); small baby lever, opposite 👌🏽
Could you tell me where to purchase the bike and gear furniture in the back ground. Very nice, I think my wife would not mind my bike and gear storage indoors if it was in a nice unit like the one shown here. Would appreciate letting me know where to find, thanks.
Thank you For the Great Video! Is double click on left shifts the Front Derailleur in all road bikes? Or is it only one click? Please let me know coz mine is set up as Two clicks for shifting.
I’m such an idiot. No matter how many times I watch this video I just don’t understand. Too many things to remember. I’m getting discouraged. Why tf can’t I grasp this concept.
Wish I could get an answer to my question about what Women's Trek bike has a triple gear ring up front? My bike from 2006 had one plus it was my favorite color. Unfortunately someone stolen it. Looking to buy a new road bike. I live in mountain country.
For anyone reading this that knows...Two Questions - 1. Should you ease off the pedals or stop pedaling for shifting on an eTap drivetrain? 2. Does Biggest front ring and smallest rear ring have some rubbing on the metal piece? i feel like i hear some rubbing. is that normal?
Hey guys. I’m hoping somebody can help me. I get that cross chaining should be avoided at all costs, but my question is can I be in the hardest gear in 1 and the 2nd easiest gear on the other?. So basically just shifting 1 gear before the extreme. Is this safe to do?
These gear systems with the shifters on the brakes are clearly inferior to the ones preceding them. It's rare that technology regresses, but in this case it not only regressed it made a giant regression.
For six years I was like a sick child. It was as if I looked out the window like other children playing with the ball but could not go with them. They invited me, but I pretended that it was more interesting for me to draw. This pain Smart Matrix. But these guys from Trek cured me. They got my legs back. I don't just play with everyone. Now the guys rolling the ball under my windows, watching on TV as I score! Want to score? Buy Trek!
@@박지환-w1m The last time I used a pair of SRAM DoubleTap levers (note: It's also my first rodeo using a pair), no problems at all. Still haven't fully understood its mechanism though.

you needed an explanation? Ive been riding bikes since I was 6! never needed any explanation!
@@weekendpartier nobody cares
Same here
Thank you! After 3000km without shifting I finally know how to do it! Already thought I bought a fixie
For real though ???
Wahyu Brillian no it’s a joke xD
Haha you got me 😁
😂 🤣 😂 🤣 😂 This is funny!
my dumbass did that for 126 km LMAO

The easiest video to understand! Thank you!
Good video - Concise yet informative.
My God!!! i Love how Direct to the Point this Tutorial on Gear Shifting on Road Bikes!!! Thanks a Lot Trek!!!
GOD BLESS US ALL!!!😊🌄😇💖💯
I just bought my bike and I didn't know how to go back to the gears. This video was absolutely useful, thank you.
As a very new rider this was SO helpful!! I feel like a gear just clicked in my brain! Haha
Best video on gear shifting for total beginners!
Just switched from an mtb to a roadbike, i struggled to shift until i found this. Thanks!
This video is awesome. Helped me a lot to understand very basics. Great job mate.

I bought my first Trek, an FX 2. This video was helpful. Thanks!!
Short and sweet (easy to understand). Thank you!
Best explanation I've found so far!
Excellent Concise and listenable !😉👏🤙😃🎉

Most clear and precise ,thanks a lot ❤
The best video for gear changing 👍👍👍
the last time i used such a bike (and i still use it on the roll), the shifting was still on the descend frame pole :D
Gracias , great review 👏
thank you , finally someone who explains it in american english
Love this video. Really helpful!
WOW! THANK YOU. I'm new to cycling 🎉
Great, informative video guys. Good job.
Such a helpful video. Thanks.
Thank you! This was helpful.
Perfect explanation
Well explained. Thank you !
Super helpful and clear, thanks!
Good video for me. However it should state its for Shimano.
Thx, very informative. Which combanation of gears is best on a bumpy road with grass?
A very good guide.
Very helpful! Thank you !!
Much needed explanation!
Could you tell me where to purchase the bike and gear furniture in the back ground. Very nice, I think my wife would not mind my bike and gear storage indoors if it was in a nice unit like the one shown here. Would appreciate letting me know where to find, thanks.
Thank you!! I couldn’t understand why my chain would make a noise sometimes but now i get it, never cross chain 😂
That's what i looked for! Thank you!
Is there a way to tell when you’re cross-chained😊? I’m still learning gear shifts.
Thank you For the Great Video!
Is double click on left shifts the Front Derailleur in all road bikes? Or is it only one click? Please let me know coz mine is set up as Two clicks for shifting.
Very useful advice.
Best video out
What about gripshift? 🤔
What about commonsense?? ;)
Don’t buy trek bikes
The durianrider... Woot
Great short and sweet video :)
I’m such an idiot. No matter how many times I watch this video I just don’t understand. Too many things to remember. I’m getting discouraged. Why tf can’t I grasp this concept.
Thanks!
Awesome video!
There is a lot of good Info here
Thanks. I was only looking for 0:40-0:45.
Wow thank you so much for this video so clear and concise amazing video
Wish I could get an answer to my question about what Women's Trek bike has a triple gear ring up front? My bike from 2006 had one plus it was my favorite color. Unfortunately someone stolen it. Looking to buy a new road bike. I live in mountain country.
So cadence is like my RPM. Cool
For anyone reading this that knows...Two Questions - 1. Should you ease off the pedals or stop pedaling for shifting on an eTap drivetrain? 2. Does Biggest front ring and smallest rear ring have some rubbing on the metal piece? i feel like i hear some rubbing. is that normal?
I wish I have a road bike this x mas🥺🥺🥺
Hi, for the cross chaining, means that easy gear at the front and hard gears at the rear?
Yep, basically opposites of each other. Big to small or small to big for the cogs the chain sits on which creates a hard angle for your chain.
Trek Bicycle thank you so much. Awesome video!
Hey guys. I’m hoping somebody can help me. I get that cross chaining should be avoided at all costs, but my question is can I be in the hardest gear in 1 and the 2nd easiest gear on the other?. So basically just shifting 1 gear before the extreme. Is this safe to do?
Not 100% OK, I personally avoid using the last two cogs.
how many gears are there for left and right shifters?
This varies by the bike's drivetrain!
super thank u so much
These gear systems with the shifters on the brakes are clearly inferior to the ones preceding them. It's rare that technology regresses, but in this case it not only regressed it made a giant regression.

Who are you?
🖕🏼TREK🖕🏼
I just got a brand new bike…. Changed the left hand gear to the middle gear, 2, and a horrible noise started immediately
He must be Bruce campbell´s son!:D
Doesn't the footage at 1:08 show somebody crosschaining?
I prefer bottom tube shifter levers, they feel more reliable and easier to shift
Are you fucking kidding me?
Don't pedal backwards when shifting....
I'ld like to think of it as big and small... the big lever moves to the bigger cogs and the small lever moves to the smaller cogs.
Only road bikes i have ridden have gear levers on frame or gooseneck.
SPEED baby, SPEED - all I want is SPEED!
That’s for shimano, for sram and campagnolo is different
Jesus Enrique Rivera Tellez
I used shimano until changing my gear shimano to sram,
Sram is completely hard to adjust about controling
박지환 thanks for the tip.
@@박지환-w1m The last time I used a pair of SRAM DoubleTap levers (note: It's also my first rodeo using a pair), no problems at all. Still haven't fully understood its mechanism though.
Same idea, campy uses the button and SRAM just goes back and forward
NOW IT'S TIME FOR A GIVEAWAY 😃
The best explanation out there, thank you
※これはSHIMANOのシフターでの場合です。
SRAMやCampagnoloとは変速の仕方が異なります。
日本人いいね

At 1:09 you show and explain the opposite at 2:00
Shifting gears for beginners
My shifters are on the bottom rail
Title and description in German? But Video is in EN?! what happend?
I know how to shift but i don't have a bike
Teach me, I have a bike but don't know how to shift
i'm using sram
Nice video and informative, but please try to turn down music volume se I can hear you better.
Thanks
Is it difficult to write that it's for shimano in the heading?
I want trek roadbike, that is my dream:((
ngl your man looks like woody from toy story
Man i miss levers
0:10
fixed gear riders: 😡
It will be a study.
Who the fuck needs a RUclips video on this?
thank you now i wont semplang any more
Audio
U are hiding with your hand...can u do more graphic for beginners
pros always cross-chain
